Aaron Burr's Rock

Chester, SC  2025

Across the street from the Civil War Monument is this rock.  The inscription reads:

IN 1806
AARON BURR WHILE PASSING 
THROUGH CHESTER A PRISONER 
DISMOUNTED ON THIS ROCK AND 
APPEALED IN VAIN TO THE
CITIZENS FOR HELP

    What an interesting bit of history shown here. I wonder if the story is true?
