Pemberton Correspondence Transcriptions
Letter dated May 6, 1702 (April 25, 1702 Old Style) from Alice Pemberton to Samuel Carpenter. It concerns the death of a mutual acquaintance who died after experiencing a pain in his hand, dying suddenly. The letter also discusses the man's widow. There is a brief note in another hand (Israel Pemberton's?) that possibly identifies the deceased as James Howard.
