1805("Statutes at Large of South Carolina," vol. v, p. 501.)
The fort was built in 1829 well beyond the 3 year stipulation. plus the secession of S.C. changed the use of the fort thereby dissolving the "grant" of the land on many other legal precedents.

The fort was built in 1829 well beyond the 3 year stipulation. plus the secession of S.C. changed the use of the fort thereby dissolving the "grant" of the land on many other legal precedents. But the land was deeded to the government by the act of the legislature in 1836. South Carolina had no claims to it.
