(The next two obituaries are both  for Mrs. William J. Wilkerson)

Mrs. W.J. Wilkerson died suddenly at her home five miles from here Thursday, 
of heart truble.  She was apparently well whem Mr. Wilkerson left home for 
this place to atend to some business.  He was at the depot when the message 
came that his wife was dead.  Mrs. Wilkerson was alone with the exception of 
small children.  The largest girl wen Mrs. Wilkerson was taken sick, ran the 
farm bell and a crowd quickly gathered, but she was beyond human aid when they 
arrived.  The bereaved family have the sympathy of all in this great trouble 
which has befallen them.

Robesonian Newspaper, June 13, 1907--

Mrs. Lonie Wilkerson died at her home in Britts Township, May 30, 1907.  she 
was born August 18, 1872, the only child of Mr. and Mrs. Isham Lamb. She 
became the happy bride of  Mr. W.J. Wilkerson, June 15, 1887 and the union was 
blessed with nine children, six of whom survive their mother.   She was an 
affectionate and unassuming disposition, exempliflying the beautiful christian 
grace in her life, thereby leaving the blessed assurance that she has 
exchanged a life of suffering for a crown in heaven.  Her death was a sudden 
shock to all, for it was unexpected.  Her father and husband left home that 
morning to go to Lumberton, and all were aparently well, only to return in a 
short while and find her in cold death.   It was indeed a heart-rendering 
ordeal and our tenderest heart-felt sympathy is extended to the grief stricken 
husband and the weeping father and lonely children: In God's will be don, not 
ours." The Lord gave and the Lord hath taken Away, blessed be the name of the 
Lord"  N.M. Fleming, June 10, 1907
