I Googled "Bee Line March" and here's what I came up with:

The "Bee Line March" refers to the 600-mile march taken by Captain Hugh Stephenson's company of 98 men from Shepherdstown, WV (then Mecklenburg) to Cambridge, MA, to join the Continental Army in 1775. They completed the journey in just 25 days, earning the march its name due to its speed and direct route. The march began on July 17, 1775, and is considered a significant early feat of the Continental Army.

? The march's origin: The march was prompted by the Second Continental Congress, which called for companies of riflemen to aid General Washington at the siege of Boston. Captain Hugh Stephenson formed one of Virginia's companies from men in and around Shepherdstown.
? The starting point: The company gathered at Morgan's Spring, near Shepherdstown, on July 17, 1775, to begin their journey.
? The journey and destination: The 600-mile march was completed in 25 days, with the men arriving in Cambridge, MA, on August 11, 1775, to join George Washington's forces.
? Historical significance: The Bee Line March is remembered for its speed and the dedication of the men who traveled a great distance to fight for independence. It is often cited as a symbol of the early Continental Army's spirit.
? Commemoration: The march is commemorated in Shepherdstown with a monument in Elmwood Cemetery erected by the Daughters of the American Revolution and a marker in Morgan's Grove Park. There have also been recent anniversary celebrations, including reenactments and historical talks. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
