Cincinnati (OH) Enquirer, March 30, 1884, p. 16. VERSAILLES, KY., MARCH 25, 1884 Dr. W. W. Whittington, one of the oldest citizens and physicians, and the oldest Mason in this county, is dead. On Sunday morning last his demise occurred, and today he was buried in the town cemetery with Masonic honors. Dr. Whittington was in his 89th year. He studied medicine in Frankfort, Ky., graduated from the Medical College, Baltimore, practiced his profession in Lexington, Indiana, for a few years, and then returned to Woodford, his native county, where he settled upon his farm, continuing the practice of medicine until too old to respond to the demands and physical hardships and exposures incident to the life of a physician. He joined the Masonic order in 1816. The ceremonies of the fraternity at the grave were very beautiful, Elder J. B. McGinn of the Christian Church of this city, chaplain of the order, officiating in an eloquent and impressive manner.
