Around this time George Wythe Sweeney, the grandson of Wythe's sister, came to live with him. In 1803 Wythe wrote a will providing generously for Sweeney. When he became aware that Sweeney was stealing from him he wrote a codicil leaving only half of his estate to Sweeney and half to one of his freed slaves, Michael Brown. Sweeney discovered the will and codicil, and slipping arsenic in food undetected, poisoned Brown and Wythe, and both died. However, Wythe wrote Sweeney out of his will, by a codicil, shortly before he died.
