Maxton, Scottish Chief, January 26, 1917

Mr. Daniel Wilkinson, who was taken to Westbrook Sanatorium near Richmond 
Va., Tuesday died at about 12:30 today from nephrites.  Thus another 
prominent citizen of this section has been taken, a good farmer who lived 
about four and a half miles north of Maxton over Lumber River.  He was an 
excellent Christian citizen, having been an elder in Centre Presbyterian 
Church for many years.  He was about 59 years of age, a practical, kind-
hearted gentleman who exerted a splendid influence in his community.  He 
was a son of the late Sandy and Effie Wilkinson, and is survived by his 
wife (Pattie O’Brien) and two children, Effie and Alex, and one brother, 
D. C Wilkinson and three sisters, Lizzie, Sallie, and Maggie, who resided 
with the deceased.  The remains will arrive on the Seaboard tomorrow morning 
and be taken to his home.  The burial will probably take place at the family 
cemetery tomorrow evening at 3 o’clock.  A good man has been called home and 
we sorrow with his bereaved loved ones.

*Note Pattie was a nickname for Martha Jane O’Brien Wilkinson
