Patriot militiamen rest in a hasty camp. While a two share buttermilk, others dig up sweet potatoes to cook on an open fire. The fire is built from fence rails, the rails being fed into the fire as they burn.
One militiaman sleeps with the firing mechanism of his weapon tucked between his legs to protect it from rain.
