GRAVES IN ST. DAVID'S CEMETERY
CHERAW

Near the South SIDE Oh the cnuIch
is the grave of
DR.. Thomas L. Powe
Born 1900
Died 1875
DR.. Powe in 1924 drove to Phila-
delphia in buggy and entered medi-
cal college. At the end of two years
he graduated and drove back to Che
raw. He brought with him the first
tomato seed to reach the South. The
tomatoes were about the size of mar
bles and were grown as decorate
plants. They were called "love
apples" and were supposed to be
poison.
DR.. Powe before the Civil War, was
one of the largest slave owners and
planters in this section. He owned
all the land from Powe street in Che
raw to the farm now owned by Mr.. j..
A Watson His father was General
Erasmus Powe War 1872 He is
buried near the water works pump
ing station. His grandfather Thomas
Powe, buried at Evans mill near
Chesterfield, was the first Powe to
come to this section. He was in the
commissary department of the Revo-
lutionary war. In 1855 the first legis-
lature of South Carolina appointed
a commission of three, one of whom
was Thomas Powe, to divide Cheraw
district into three counties and name
them. This was done and Marlboro
Chesterfield and Darlington (Which
at that time included what is now
Florence county, was the result.
Thomas Powe was one of the war
dens when Old st. Davids church was
built At a recent service in st. Da-
vid's church there were twenty two
in this choir all of whom were his
descendants. Among his descendants
in Cleraw today are the Powes, God
freys, Duvalls, Harralls, McIvers and
others.

have profted by the inspiration Of
principals
There is one point which I should
like TO make before I close this
series of articles-the first. I think.
ever to give the American public the
real truth Of what goes on behind
the scenes in the beautyland of the
stage and IL is this.
The American chorus girl, for all
that she is misunderstood and MAJ
ligned, is. generally speaking. am adj
mirable character. I have had 20 do
with a good many classes of persons
IN Europe and America in the last
% years-aIl kinds of Americans, all
kinds of foreigners. have had OPP
portunity to observe how men and
how women act in times Of danger,
stress and sorrow. And I am willing
70 say this, that there is no more
generous, more loyal, Drawer ard un-
selfish type OF human being In the
South Bend news-times. (South Bend, Ind.) 1913-1938, 1921-09-18

a wealthy man. Each OF them, up 70
short time ago. at least, was living
a busy life. II is interesting TO note
their several paths in life.
Marjorie Relyea, who was consid-
sidered by many the most beautiful
Of the fam Gus Pretty Maidens'' Gas
the song RAM, was married TO the
late Richard d. Holmes, a nephew
Of Andrew Carnegie. the capitalist.
Upon his death she inherited a for
tune. She later married a Wall
Street broker.
Marie Wilson, the first to leave the
sextette, married Frederick Gebhart,
a wealthy New Yorker. They were
living in Washington at the time OF
Mr.. Gebhart's death.
Daisy Green became a prima DON
ma and later married wealthy
stock-broker OF Denver. They are
now residing in New York City.
Vaughn Texsmith. the widow Of
Isaac J. Hail. multi-nilHonaire silk
manufacturer of Paterson, y. J., has
taken up her husbands business AMI
is said 10 be conducting il in able
fashion.
Agnes Wayburn welded a South
African Of means and moved 10 Jo-
hannesburg, while Margaret Walker
married an eastern capitalist and
lives in Atlantic City.
IL is true that today there Z .
many marriages between wealthy
men and chorus beauties. but you
Will find that even after marriage the
call OF the fOotlights often brings
them back TO the stage. For the
modern beauty Of personality wants
TO do more than lead a quiet life.
Again and again it has been the case
that after several years Of domestic
ity. a chorus beauty will come 10
theatrical manager and apply for
job again in the beauty chorus. Ana
often she is taken back.
on the other hand the beauty
from the chorus has a much better
time in society now than she used 10
enjoy. It was not infrequent years
ago 10 hear Of instances Of snubbins
at the hands OF alleged social su-
+ periors who did not believe that a
chorus girl was quite the sort OF per-
son they wanted to recognize. These
foolish lines, however. have largely
/ broken down and the chorus CIR,
who now marries and moves into a
+ typical American community is re-
ceived just as any other person
. should be-according TO her charac-
ter. education and refinement merit.
Inspiration OF the Star.
/ 1T seems 70 me that every girl in
/ his company is trying to become q
/ principal" one Of my directors once
said 10 me at the close Of a rehear-
sal
II wish they could all attain their
ambition,"I replied. and that is the
way that most producers think OF il
lam sure.
4 The chorus beauties, you see. have
always IN front OF them, night BY
night before the footlights, the shin
ing example OF some star, who. like
as not, has herself risen from the
ranks OF the beauty chorus
This is a great inspiration. Il has
a marked effect on what that chorus
beauty Is going 10 do in future years.

for positions in the chorus
in the last 20 years and I can truth
fully state that OF recent years there
has been a tremendous change in
the sort of girl and in the motives
which seem TO actuate stage aspir-
ants. 1t is no longer desire to get
into the limelight. as it once was.

scores Of chorus girls on to high
fame.
1t is said OF Elsie Ferguson that
from the moment she set foot upon
the stage in the beauty chorus and
saw the desirable position OF prin-
cipals or the stage, she determined
deep in her heart TO advance TO the
top OF her chosen profession How
famous she has become, both on the
stage and the silver screen, is a mat
ter OF public knowledge. And Elsie
Ferguson is but one OF many who
