From his office In Columbia yesterday, George McNabb of the Research, Planning and Development Board said, that ha had visited the remain recently uncovered by Smithsonian Institution Archaeologist J. R. Caldwell, and that he has collected data on the fort probably to be used in a staU-wlde campaign for the purpose of turning the fort into a museum. Fort Charlotte was erected In 1768 by colonists a protection against the invading Creek Indians.1 Later, in 1775, It was taken from the British in a move that marked the first overt act of the Revolutionary war in South Carolina. Only the stone used In the construction of the fort remains.

The rest has been swept away over the years by the Savannah. Mr. McNabb is of the opinion, however, that enough atone 1 left for a restoration of the fort as it wal in I7M.

Within two or three weeks the location will probably be covered by water, although this was not known for sure Mr. McNabb was contacting engineers of the dam yesterday to learn for certain.
