Col. Elijah Clarke, distinguished Revolutionary soldier, in charge of American troops stationed on the mountain, fought a battle with the British and Indians in the valley across Broad River . The river, since straightened by a canal, then flowed by the foot of the mountain. The river bridge, known as the Line Bridge is on the survey line of the "Last Four Mile Purchase Tract" bought from the Cherokee Indians by the government. General Wofford and a party appointed by the State Legislature rode horseback to Washington to intercede with the government to buy this land.
