Notes From AAS: "In the American daily advertiser of the tenth of August 1803, was inserted an extract from the Charleston courier, respecting the vision and death of Lord Lyttleton. Having since seen several manuscripts accounts of the same event, differing materially from that publication ... we have sought for and obtained the original writing, from which they had been transcribed, and present a faithful copy of it to our readers. The original ... is in the handwriting of Mrs. M-- K-- [i.e., Mary Knowles], a lady distinguished in the literary world ... and for her dispute with the celebrated Dr. Johnson, on the right of private judgment in mattars [sic] of religion. ..."--Introduction, p. [3].
