OBITUARY OF MRS. ROBERT FALLIGANT
The Augusta Chronicle
Monday, November 8, 1915

FUNERAL SERVICES OF MRS. FALLIGANT
   The funeral services of the late Mrs. Robert Falligant, of Savannah,
   were held in Augusta yesterday immediately after the arrival of the
   Central train from Savannah.

   The funeral cortege came up in a private car from Savannah, and
   accompanying the body were Mrs. Byron (sic) Carter, the only surviving
   child of Mrs. Falligant, and her two daughters, Ellen and Sarah, and Mr.
   W. R. Coe, of New York, whose first wife was Miss Janie Falligant, of
   Savannah, daughter of Judge and Mrs. Falligant.

   In the party were also three pallbearers, Judge George T. Cann, Mr.
   Raiford Falligant, a nephew of the deceased, and Mr. Robert Gravis,
   another nephew.  The party was met here by relatives and friends and the
   interment was at the Summerville Cemetery.  The services were conducted
   by the rector of St. Paul’s, Rev. G. Sherwood Whitney, and quartet choir
   from St. Paul’s sang “Rock of Ages” and “Jesus Lover of My Soul.”
   The pallbearers were the gentlemen from Savannah, Mr. Thomas Burke, of
   Atlanta, a nephew, Mr. James U. Jackson, a brother-in-law by marriage of
   the deceased, and Major Joseph B. Cumming.  The entire section where
   this beloved woman was laid to rest beside her daughter almost
   completely covered with the innumerable beautiful floral designs, plants
   and flowers sent both by Savannah and Augusta friends.

   Mrs. Robert Falligant was the wife of Judge Falligant, of Savannah, one
   of the leading jurists of Georgia, who died some years ago.  She was
   born in Augusta and was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Thomas, who
   were prominent citizens of Augusta, and lived here all their lives.  She
   is survived by her daughter, Mrs. Byron [sic] Carter, of Savannah, and
   two granddaughters; by two nieces, Mrs. Henry B. King and Miss Fanny
   Cashin, of Augusta, and a number of nephews and nieces.

   The Savannah party returned to Savannah last night on the Central train.
   Mrs. Carter and daughters and Mrs. Coe were the guests of Mr. and Mrs.
   H. B. King while in Augusta.
