An address given by appointment of the American Revolution Bicentennial Commission on the occasion of the two hundredth anniversary of the evacuation of Charleston by the British on Tuesday, the fourteenth of December, 1982 at ten-thirty o'clock in the morning, Trinity Cathedral, Columbia, South Carolina

Abstract

This address tells of the evacuation of British forces from Charleston in 1782 and the state movements in history that came out of that evacuation. The first was to make a virgin land bloom. The second great movement was that by which the lowcountry agreed to share power with the upcountry. The third movement is to see that all share equally in the success of our republican experiment
