DATID'S CEMETERY CHEBAW Near the Confederate Monument in the family enclosure is the grave of ROBERT KENDALL i He came to Che raw from near "Wadesboro and was a prominent merchant He was Mayor of Cheraw in 1S58 at the time the town hall was built While the building was In cotfrso of construction a tornado came and blew it down, filling Second street between where the hall now is and the Cheraw Hardware store, with the debris. It was during his term as Mayor that the Carolina Central Railrbad was built This road is now the Seaboard from Wilmington to Charlotte. The railroad people made a proposition to come by Cheraw if so much money should be subscribed.

If the road bad come via Cheraw the town would probably be as large as Charlotte by this time. Mr. Kendall died In Columbia a few years ago at the house of his sou, Dr. Francis D. Kendall.
