C. D. Galligan.
Hardly anything is desired by people
of wealth and tasteful ideas more
than antique furniture, and in every
section of the country dealers are kept
busy supplying the wants of their
patrons and repairing old antiques
which had been relegated to the garret
as useless until the craze for it swept
over the country. Of the dealers in
the antique line here, by far the
most prominent is Mr. C. D. Galligan,
who is beyond question the best posted
man in this line in the South. He has
been engaged in it for many years, and
can duplicate almost any of the most
famous pieces. Mr. Galligan's place of
business is located at 487 East Market
street, and fairly teems with furniture
of every description, as, in addition to
antique work, he does a general furniture,
repairing, and upholstering business.
The subject of this sketch was
born in Warren County, Pa., and entered
the business there years ago. Later
he moved to Newark, N. Y., and
from there came South.
