According to www.laughtergenealogy.com, Edward Rutledge's death was hastened by a necessary attendance upon the sitting of the legislature at Columbia, and an unfortunate exposure to rain and cold during his return to Charleston. On reaching home, he was confined by a severe illness, which ended his life on Jan 23, 1800.
