The Western Star, March 6, 1925.

ADJUDGED OF UNSOUND MIND

M. W. Wilkerson, aged 76, who has been a resident of this city for a number of years, was adjudged of unsound mind by an insanity commission, which was summoned by Probate Judge Cosby and which heard evidence in his court on Wednesday afternoon of this week. Dr. Holcomb of this city and Dr. Ramey of Protection composed the commission. Dr. Shelley was the examining physician. Mr. Wilkerson has been in poor health for some time and for several months his mind has showed indications of being affected. He will be taken to one of the state hospitals as soon as arrangements can be made.
