Editing Daniel Webster (section)

==Death==

By early 1852, Webster had begun to suffer from [[cirrhosis]] of the liver, and his poor health increasingly made it difficult for him to serve as secretary of state. In September 1852, Webster returned to his Marshfield estate, where his health continued to decline due to cirrhosis and a [[subdural hematoma]].{{sfn|Remini|1997|pp=753–756, 761}} He died in Marshfield, Massachusetts on October 24, 1852, at the age of 70, and is buried in [[Winslow Cemetery]] near his estate. His last words were, "I still live."{{sfn|Remini|1997|pp=759–760}}
