Mill, Rifles at Ramsour's

Zack Harper, at the request of his lovely neighbor Grace, enters the North Carolina woods in search of her brother Godfrey, suspected of having joined the Tory forces. Once captured, Zack's innocent story falls on deaf cars and he is sentenced to be hanged. Godfrey's loyalty to his cause does not preclude his indirect part in helping a good neighbor escape and when Zack returns home, he is no longer a neutral but a staunch rebel who responds instantly to Samuel Martin's call to arms. Because of his knowledge of the South Fork area, Zack is sent on dangerous scouting expeditions from which he gleans important information pertaining to arsenals and territory for the Rebels.
