The Battle of Kemp's Landing, also known as the Skirmish of Kempsville, was a skirmish in the American Revolutionary War that occurred on November 15, 1775. Militia companies from Princess Anne County in the Province of Virginia assembled at Kemp's Landing to counter British troops under the command of Virginia's last colonial governor, John Murray, Lord Dunmore, that had landed at nearby Great Bridge. Dunmore was investigating rumors of Patriot troop arrivals from North Carolina that turned out to be false; he instead moved against the Princess Anne militia, defeating their attempt at an ambush and routing them.

  • ケンプスランディングの戦い(英: Battle of Kemp's Landing、またはケンプスビルの小競り合い、英: Skirmish of Kempsville)は、アメリカ独立戦争中の1775年11月15日に起きた小戦闘である。バージニア植民地プリンセスアン郡の民兵中隊が、近くのグレートブリッジで上陸した植民地最後の総督第4代ダンモア伯ジョン・マーレイが指揮するイギリス軍に対抗するために、ケンプスランディングに結集した。ダンモアはノースカロライナ植民地の愛国者民兵隊が到着するという噂について調査していたが、それが嘘だと分かったので、待ち伏せしようとしていたプリンセスアン郡の民兵隊に軍勢を向かわせてこれを破り、潰走させた。 ダンモアはこの勝利に続いてその宣言書を読み上げ、戒厳令を発し、愛国者主人に属する奴隷がイギリス軍に仕えるならば、その身分を解放すると約束した。このことで却ってダンモアに対する抵抗が増し、最後はバージニアを去るしかなくなった。 (ja)
