KENDALL. KENDRICKKN. 35: debts which he had contracted in the lumber business. In i860 Mr. Kendall began business for himself, in Cambridgeport, under the firm name of Kendall & Roberts, giving his at- tention chiefly to the construction of boilers. At present his sons are connected with him, conducting the extensive Charles River Iron Works, under the firm name of Edward Kendall & Sons. He has made many improvements and inventions in boiler manufacture. Almost from childhood Mr. Kendall has been connected with the temperance move- ment, and has become identified as a leader EDWARD KENDALL in the cause. In 1886 and '88 he was the Prohibitory candidate for representative to Congress from the 5th district. The Ken- dall Cadet Corps bears his name. He is one of the directors of the Massachusetts Uliance. He was one of the founders and the first deacon of the Pilgrim Congrega- tional church of Cambridgeport, and a trustee of the Cambridgeport Savings Hank. He was for two years president of the Cambridge Temperance Reform Asso- ciation. He has been four times elected on the board of aldermen, and twice a member of the state Legislature, in the years 1S75 and '76. His career forms a striking illustration of the vast amount of good which can be accomplished by hard work, fair and honest dealing, and a prac- tical application of the golden rule in all the varied walks of life. In Paxton, on the 16th of December, 1847, Mr. Kendall was married to Reliance, daughter of Solomon and Abigail (War- ren) Crocker. They have had four chil- dren : Edward and Emma, both deceased, and George Frederick and James Henry Kendall. KENDR1CKEN, Paul Henry, son of Martin and Annie Kendricken, was born in Gal way, Ireland, December 26, 1834. His early education was obtained in the public schools of Boston, and his instruc- tion in the evening schools helped to culti- vate a natural taste for mechanics. Having passed a successful examination, he was commissioned third assistant engi- neer, June 20, 1862, and entered the naval service at that time, joining the " Cune- maugh," of Admiral Dupont's fleet; after- wards served under Admirals Dahlgren and Farragut. On September 6, 1863, he was promoted to second engineer for gal- lantry and courage under fire. From the " Conemaugh " he was transferred to the iron ship, " Circassian," and the monitor, " Nauset," but was afterwards returned to the " Conemaugh," as he best understood her complicated machinery. His first engagement was the attack on Fort Wagner, Morris Island. He also par- ticipated in the attack and the passage of forts in Mobile Bay, August 5, 1864, with Admiral Farragut. He served in many other important engagements during his four years and three months' term of ser- vice, and at the close, September 6, 1S66, received a diploma from the naval depart- ment and one from the State of Mass.i chusetts. On returning to Boston he was made superintendent of the steam-heating works of T. S. Clogston & Co., which position he held until the death of Mr. Clogston, when a new corporation was formed, of which he- was made a partner, under the linn name of Ingalls & Kendricken. Mr. Kendricken was a member of the Boston common council from ward 20, in 1878, '79 and '80. In 1883 he was elected to the board of aldermen, and was appointed director of public institutions, and intro- duced several reforms in their manage- ment.
