"DR. J. S. WHILLDIN
Dr. J. S. Whilldin, whose death at St Paul, Minnesota, has just been announced, was the son of Mr. Alexander Whilldin, well known in mercantile circles in this city, and had but recently made his home in St Paul. He was forty-five years of age, and was stricken down in the midst of his usefulness. Dr. Whilldin was a graduate of the Philadelphia High School and of Amherst College, and studied medicine and graduated with honors from the University of Pennsylvania. He afterwards practiced medicine at Erie, Pa., and served his country for four years in the army. Dr. Whilldin arose on Thursday morning last in his usual health, took a bath, shaved and partially dressed himself, when, complaining of not feeling well, his wife left the room for some remedy for him, and upon her return, a few minutes afterwards, found him a corpse. Dr. Davenport said that the death resulted from a sudden disarrangement of some of the functions of the heart. Dr. Whilldin leaves a widow and one daughter."
