The Original Tombstone
Placed Over Body oe Baron de
Kalb Has Been Found.
Special to The State.

Special to The State.
Camden, June 19.-Mr- Robt
Kennedy, the head of the Cam
den graded school, has lately
made very interesting historical
find which is nothing less than the
original tombstone of the revolu.
tionary hero Baron de Kalb.
Baron de Kalb was mortally
wounded at the battle of Camden
in 1880, and died three days later
in the hands of the British. The
gallant soldier was buried in the
Presbyterian church yard near the
First Presbyterian church.
In the beginning of the last
century the church was rebuilt
at its present site on De Kalb
street and on the 18th April, 1925,
in the presence of Lafayette, the
remains of De Kalb were removed
and placed in their present rest
ing place in front of the Presby-
tcrian church in vault ornament
ed by massive marble shaft.
For decades all trace of the first
stone was lost, and only a few
old people vaguely remembered
of having heard of such a stone
so or 60 years ago.
After a fruitless search Mr..
Kennedy resolved to try the Gel
lar of the Presbyterian church as
a last resort, and here the stone
was discovered, black with age
and dust, but otherwise well pre-
served.
