Notes
Death
Letter from Margaret Macartney to James Iredell, dated Bath, 30 Apr 1770, states: “This packet, my dear James, will give you an account of my dear uncle's demise. Though it's been an event long expected, yet I have no doubt but the filial tenderness you are possessed of will render it an affliction to you, who knew so well his affectionate regard for you.” Don Higginbotham, The Papers of James Iredell, Vol. 1, pp 46-47.Endnotes
