Why did William Lloyd Garrison die?

Answer 1

From what I read, William Lloyd Garrison lived a long and successful life. I recently did a major report on him, and I found out why he died. First of all, his wife, Helen died in 1876. He became depressed and confined himself to his bedroom for a while. During that time he also had a fever and bronchitis, from which he recovered. He continued to weaken throughout the year before he died and had been fighting kidney disease for some time now. Then on May 24th, 1879, he lost consciousness a little before midnight. So that's why William Lloyd Garrison died.
