Raleigh Standard 2 Nov. 1864
  DIED, very suddenly of congestive chill, at his residence in Kinston, Lenoir 
County, N. C., the 22nd of October, 1864, MR. DANIEL HILTON, son of WILLIAM 
and SUSAN HILTON, aged 42 years, two months and 11 days.
   The deceased was a native of England, but removed with his father to this 
country, when only about eight years old. For the last 13 years he has resided 
in the town of Kinston, where he was most favorably known, both for the 
geniality of his temperament and the honest industry of his character. He was 
one of the first mechanics and architects in the South, and under his 
supervision, nearly every bridge on the Atlantic Railroad between the Towns of 
Goldsboro' and Newbern was erected and besides he has left more lasting 
monuments of his enterprise and attainments in other and more distant 
localities He leaves a dear wife and one little boy to mourn their loss, 
together with friends and relatives.
