On Feb. 2, Union troops moved up the road on the opposite bank of the Salkehatchie, fighting a running battle with Confederate cavalrymen who tried to slow their advance. Among the casualties was Pvt. John B. Woods of the 3rd South Carolina Cavalry. Shot in the leg, Woods later bled to death at Rivers Bridge, where his unit took up position near here on the Confederate left flank.
