SOUTH CAROLINA
Sparrow made out his will on July 7th, 1799 in South Carolina, with a concern that the "I find the yellow fever prevailing and may prove fatal. " This was no idle fear, for on October 24, 1799, in Charleston, the following was reported: "City in the midst of a yellow fever epidemic. Funerals range between 5 to 8 per day, with the highest for one day being 18. The dreadful disease kills some 362 people before it subsides." http://www.bcdcog.com/publications/Month_In_Review/october02.pdf ]
Of interest, in the same year, in Nova Scotia, the assembly met on Friday, 7 June, 1799 (7th general assembly, 7th and last session). and Governor Wentworth in his speech recommended quarantine laws to guard against "yellow fever."
