COX - On the 28th inst., MARY ELIZABETH, wife of John Cox, in the 25th year of her age.

Lone is the house and sad the hour,

The Wilkins Cemetery, a landmark of Black history in Dunn, was the scene Saturday of a gathering to remember, commemorate and set goals to restore the cemetery that was neglected for decades.

A movement to restore the Wilkins Cemetery gathered more momentum at the gathering as residents urged volunteers to help clean up the cemetery and remove the trees and underbrush that have taken over. The Wilkins Cemetery Commission, the group of volunteers spearheading efforts to clean up the graveyard, heard from state Sen. Harris Blake, a guest at the gathering who said he would support efforts to make the graveyard a historic site.
