| http://dbpedia.org/ontology/abstract | Sally St. Clair or St. Clare (died 1782) w … Sally St. Clair or St. Clare (died 1782) was an American woman from South Carolina who disguised herself as a man and joined the Continental Army. Her true gender was not discovered by her fellow soldiers until after she was killed in battle during the Siege of Savannah in 1782. Little is known about St. Clair. She is variously described as a Creole woman, a woman of color, and a woman of African and French descent. By some accounts she joined the army to be with her lover, sergeant William Jaspar from Francis Marion's Brigade, and was killed saving his life. She may have served as a gunner. Several sources claim she was killed during the Battle of Savannah in 1778. "Romantic Victorians" such as George Pope Morris claimed that even her lover did not recognize her until after she was killed and her body was prepared for burial. Morris's poem about St. Clair begins: In the ranks of Marion's band,Through morass and wooded land,Over beach of yellow sand, Mountain, plain and valley;A southern maid, in all her pride,March'd gayly at her lover's side, In such disguise That e'en his eyes Did not discover Sally. Morris describes St. Clair as a "beautiful, dark-eyed Creole girl" with "long, jetty ringlets," and claims that she died of a lance thrust aimed at her lover, Sergeant Jasper. He goes on to say that "there was not a dry eye in the corps when Sally St. Clair was laid in her grave, near the River Santee, in a green shady nook that looked as if it had been stolen out of Paradise." Warren Wildwood tells her story in similarly picturesque terms in Thrilling Adventures Among the Early Settlers (1866). A commentary in a 1906 South Carolina historical society article detailing a 1784 land grant given to Sgt. Jasper's heir William Jasper, says the reading of the land grant information "is recommended to the consideration of those people who believe that silly story about a girl named Sinclair who in man's attire followed Jasper into service because of her love for him and was killed in an action on the Santee."nd was killed in an action on the Santee." , Sally St. Clair (?-1779; también deletread … Sally St. Clair (?-1779; también deletreado St. Clare) fue una mujer estadounidense de Carolina del Sur que disfrazada de hombre se unió al ejército durante la Guerra de la Independencia. Su verdadero género no fue descubierto hasta que murió en batalla durante el asedio de Savannah en 1779. Poco se sabe sobre St. Clair. Es variadamente descrita como una mujer criolla, una mujer de color, o una mujer de ascendencia africana y francesa. Según algunos relatos, se unió al ejército para estar con su amado, un sargento. Pudo haber servido como artillero. Varias fuentes afirman que fue muerta durante la batalla de Savannah en 1779. Los "victorianos románticos" como George Pope Morris afirmaron que incluso su amado no la reconoció hasta después de su muerte, cuando su cuerpo era preparado para el entierro. Comienza el poema de Morris sobre St. Clair: En las filas de la banda de Mariona través de pantanos y tierras boscosas,sobre la playa de arena amarilla,montaña, llanura y valle,una doncella sureña, en todo su orgullo,marcha alegremente al lado de su amado,en tal disfraz,que en sus ojosno descubre a Sally. Morris describe a St. Clair como "una bonita chica criolla, de ojos oscuros" con "largos, ondulados tirabuzones," y afirma que murió al interceptar una estocada dirigida a su amado, el sargento Jaspe. Continua diciendo que " no había ojos secos cuando el cuerpo de Sally St. Clair fue enterrado en su tumba, cerca del río Santee, en un rincón verde y sombreado que parecía robado al Paraíso." Warren Wildwood cuenta su historia en términos similarmente pintorescos en Thrilling Adventures Among the Early Setlers (Emocionantes aventuras entre los primeros pobladores, 1866).ras entre los primeros pobladores, 1866). |
