Nov. 17,  1843   Charlotte Journal
   DIED, on the 12th of November, at his residence in Cabarrus County, 
ARCHIBALD McCURDY, ESQ., at the advanced age of 92. He was a staunch Whig of 
the Revolution and an active and faithful soldier in the battles of 
independence. He was a lieutenant in Sumpter's Regiment, in a company 
commanded by WM. POLK. He was also a soldier under that brave officer, the 
late GEN. JOSEPH GRAHAM. He was in the battle of Eutaw and fought against the 
Tories of Ramsour's Mills. After the Revolution, he was an efficient and 
useful public servant; was a long time  a Justice of the Peace, and served the 
County of Cabarrus in the House of commons, not long after its division from 
Mecklenburg. He lived a life of integrity and died with the firmness of a 
hero -- may he rest in peace.
