w/o Benjamin Putnam St.; "JCC" on stone; Birth date not given.
Mrs. Julia Catherine Calhoun, relict of the late Hon. Benjamin P. Calhoun, died at Saluda, N.C., at 8:10 p.m. Friday the 24th inst. The funeral was held from St. Mark's Episcopal church in this city Monday afternoon July 27th, at 4:30, and was attended by a vast outpouring of people of the city, a large part of whom were the personal friends of the deceased. The interment was in the family lot, beside the grave of her distinguished husband, in West View Cemetery. The service, both at the church and grave, was conducted by Rev. William Wyllie, rector of the church.
Mrs. Calhoun is survived by four children - Judge E. Noble Calhoun of the municipal court, Julia C., and Miss Kate Putnam Calhoun of this city, and Ensign William L. Calhoun of the United States Navy at present on duty in the Philippines. The latter her second son.
She was the daughter of the late Peter and Martha Petermann, her father being a pioneer merchant of Palatka. Of her father's family, her brother, Mr. Henis Petermann, and sister, Mrs. C. T. Rogero, reside in this city, and another sister, Mrs. W. R. De Witt, resides at Carlisle, Pa.
Mrs. Calhoun was a native of Palatka. She was educated at the Episcopal priory in Jacksonville and the private school of Mrs. Quarterman in this city. She was married to Hon. Benjamin P. Calhoun January 24th, 1878, and her married life was one of singular happiness until the crushing blow which fell October 20th, 1906, and which robbed her of a devoted husband and the home of a fond and indulgent father. Her illness ... and there has been no rallying time, but rather a steady decline until death came to her relief.
Mrs. Calhoun was taken to Saluda on the 14th inst., by her son, Judge E. Noble Calhoun, who in all the months of her illness was her almost constant attendant and upon whose loving arm she relied for comfort and guidance through the dark days of her widowhood.
She was a communicant of the Episcopal church, a member of the Ladies' Memorial Society and the United Daughters of the Confederacy.
The funeral was attended by hundreds of citizens in all walks of life many of whom could not get within the church. The floral tributes were many and beautiful. The service was simple and the hymns used were favorites, and of the deceased's own selections.
R. S. Mooney had charge of the funeral details. The honorary pallbearers were Dr. E. S. Crill, E. N. McNab, Henry Strunz, N. H. Moragne, Herbert Crook and A. T. Triay. The active pallbearers were Dr. W. H. Rosenberg, S. J. Hilburn, L. C. Canova, A. S. Willard, S. J. Kennerly and J. H. Haughton. (Palatka News Obituary dtd Friday, 31 Jul 1908.)
