The mass of General Wright s command (it was designated as the First Division, but a part of General Steph ens Division the Second was with him) was on John s Island, near the Haulver, the night of the 2d. The distance from that point to Legareville, on the Stono, is about ten miles, and the road good. Captain Percival Drayton, of the navy, was in the Stono prepared to cross the troops over to James Island immediately on their arrival.
98 THE SIEGE OF CHARLESTON Some delay occurred in the movem...ent of General Wright s command, attributed to the lack of trans portation and a damaged wharf at Seabrook s Island. His command did not reach Legareville until the evening of the 5th. This delay, occurring after the arrival of Stephens troops had given warn ing of the approaching storm, had given General Pemberton time, which it was believed he had pro fited by, to throw reinforcements on James Island. The purpose, therefore, of taking the island by a coup-de-main was abandoned and it was determined to hold the position already secured, provide a se curely entrenched camp and await reinforcements.
