Wilford is dying; gives family final instructions on funeral and disposition of belongings.
Nov 2nd
I was attacked in my left right lung with severe pain and
caugh which somewhat alarmed me. I had to lie upon my back
or sit in a chair as I could not lie upon either side. Up
to this time my right lung had been sound, this attack did
not last me ownly about 2 days before the caugh left me &
soon the soreness also.
