The battle on the American right flank began in earnest at the Birmingham Meeting House. Earlier in the day it had been set up to be used as a hospital by Washington....the Quakers held services that day elsewere, humbly noting "Today there was much confusion outside". As the British Light Infantry and German Jaegers pushed, the defense behind the walls at the the meeting house became more resolute...the 200 men of the 3rd Virginia regiment held steadfast, falling back only after expending all of their ammunition, and the appearance of the main body of Cornwallis's Army, several thousand strong.
