    ARTICLE: "Church Supervises Wiegand Memorial For Scholarships 
    The trustees of Independent Presbyterian Church have agreed 
    to supervise a music memorial scholarship fund opened by the daughter and 
    grandson of John Wiegand, the church's organist from 1902 until his 
    retirement at 74 in 1915. 
    The first contribution to the fund was given by Professor Wiegand's only 
    surviving child, Marie Cabaniss, and his grandson, Charles Weigand Cabaniss. 
    Donations will be tax deductible and will be made payable to the church for 
    the Weigand Scholarship Fund. Once the fund reaches the necessary size, 
    annual scholarship awards are to be made by a panel of judges. 
    The contestants will be presented in recitals, adding a dimension to the 
    musical and cultural life of Savannah that the sponsors wish the fund to 
    foster. 
    Before coming to Savannah from Augusta in 1898, this distinguished musician 
    and composer served 30 years as organist and choirmaster at St. Paul's 
    Episcopal Church there. He became organist-choirmaster at the Cathedral of 
    St. John the Baptist on arrival in Savannah, a post he left to take the 
    Presbyterian church position.  
    Professor Weigand, as he was called, was born in Homberg, Germany and moved 
    to New York at 18, where he played violin in the orchestra that became the 
    new York Symphony. 
    He composed more than 1,000 sacred and secular works, many of which were 
    published and continue to be used today." --Savannah Morning News, 
    November 29, 1980 
     
    HIS MUSIC: "Compositions and Arrangements for the Violin", 1893, "The Old 
    Oaken Buckent", 1900, "Courtesy", 1905, "Les Romeaux", 1894. -- Composers
