  • Biographical Sketch of General John Adair
    ^ Imtifrattg of Ptttsburgij Darlington Memorial Library a^im^^-JX -^^ Bnak ^S^2^^ BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH \'^ ^®^t®* WASHINGTON : PniJfTEr BT OALi;S Zi SEATOX. 1830, '^p '* ^i60 .n iK^^ John Adair, the third sou of William Adair and Mary Moore, was born in Chester county, South Carolina, in the year 1759. His elder brother, William, and himself, received the rudiments of their education at Charlotte, North Carolina. Their father was a determined whig, and his sons soon aban- doned their studies to take part in the Revolutionary struggle. John Adair, though but seventeen years of age at the De- claration of Independence, had already exhibited among his neighbors, traits of that cool and daring spirit for which his after life has been so eminently distinguished. Modestly be- lieving, however, that he was too young to obtain a commis- sion, he entered as a volunteer in an independent corps under the command of the gallant Sunipter. The tory party had greatly the ascendency in the settle- ment. The whigs were proscribed and persecuted ; and old Mr. Adair was particularly obnoxious, botii on account of his own decided patriotism, and the intrepid character of his sons. To glut their resentment, and strike terror into the refrac- tory, a party of British and torics occupied the house of Adair; turned his family out of doors, taking from them every ar- ticle of value, even to tlic shoe 1>ucklcs of his wife ; and, after carousing during the night, plundered or destroyed the furni- ture and moveables. John Adair and liis brother reported tins outrage to Colo- nels Sumpter and Lacey, who were then collecting a foi-ce in the neighborhood to check the operations of the enemy.
