Dr. William A. Dick, formerly of Greensborough, N. C., and a son of the
late Judge J. M. Dick, died in the town of Lumberton, N. C., on the 27th
of March, 1879. Dr. Dick was no ordinary man. He was educated at the
University of North Carolina, this institution conferring the degree of
A. M. upon him in 1853. He graduated in Medicine at the University of
New York, March, 1852; and began the practice of his profession in
Lumberton in 1852. The medical profession has lost a bright light, and
the community in which he lived a useful and honored citizen.
