d the patriots surrendered and forfeited the city of augusta to the british.

The correct answer is letter C.

The Battle of Kettle Creek was fought on February 14, 1779, during the American Revolution (1775-1783). In 1778, the new British commander in North America, General Sir Henry Clinton, decided to leave Philadelphia and concentrate his forces in New York City. This reflected the desire to protect this fundamental basis by following the Alliance Treaty between the Continental Congress and France. Emerging from Valley Forge, General George Washington pursued Clinton in New Jersey.

Clashing at Monmouth on June 28, the British decided to break up the fight and continue their retreat to the north. When British forces settled in New York City, the war in the north came to a halt. Believing that support for the British cause was stronger in the south, Clinton began preparing to campaign hard in that region.
