Andrew Falls

Arkansas State Penitentiary, Pulaski County, Arkansas

Andrew Falls died at the penitentiary in Little Rock, Arkansas, from the effects of poison he had taken while held at Helena, according to a Griggs Courier account published in January 1893. The article lists his death among several and gives no further detail about his life, his family, or the circumstances of the poisoning. No other source in the record describes how or why he came to take the poison or whether anyone was aware of his condition. Because the account is brief and the only source, the details of his death remain unclear.

Cause of death, as reported: Cause not yet determined. The report says he died from the effects of poison he took while held at Helena, with no further detail on how it happened.
