2 Miller's Official Manual of Tennessee, p. 180. names Governor William Blount as a member of the Territorial Court, and omits the name of John McNairy. Both are erro- neous. June 8, 1790, President Washington appointed Campbell, McNairy, and Perry to be the Judges of the Southwest Territory. Perry did not qualify, and Anderson was appointed in his place, and qualified July 15, 1791. See Blount's Journal in American Historical Magazine, pp. 221, 223, 230, 235, and 239. 3 Member of the present Bench.
4 Miller's Manual states the appointment of Daniel Smith as made in 1792. This is an error. See Blount's Journal.
