Thurs., April 12, 1860   North Carolina Argus April 12, 1860
   -- The many friends of W. W. WILKINS, ex-Sheriff of Anson County, will be 
pained to learn that he has been stricken down with a severe attack of 
paralysis. He took part in the Democratic meeting in this town last Saturday, 
and after retiring from it and getting his dinner, the attack came on. He had 
been complaining for several days before of being unwell, and it is generally 
conceded that the excitement attending his speaking at the meeting (he not 
being used to public speaking) hastened the attack. He lays in his room at the 
Mansion House in a very critical condition, surrounded by anxious and 
sorrowing friends.
