Walkinshaw Family - Robert Walkinshaw - Obituary

I found this obituary for Robert Walkinshaw on 31 December 2020 in ChroniclingAmerica.loc.gov.  

This obituary reads as:

OBITUARY.
__________
   WALKINSHAW

Robert Walkinshaw, a veteran of Company D. Fifty-third Illinois Infantry, died at the Soldiers' Home Wednesday afternoon of Lalymgides. Mr. Walkinshaw enlisted Sept. 10, 1861, at Fulton, and was discharged July 6, 1865, at Pulaski Tenn. He was admitted to the home from Clinton county in 1892. He is survived by one daughter, Mrs. S. C. Schill, of Clarion. The body was taken to Clinton this afternoon for Interment.
[I looked up Lalymgides and came up with no medical definition. Perhaps it means Laryngitis?]
