Joc O Sot's Grave

Joc O Sot's Grave
The grave of Joc O Sot, chief of the Sauk Tribe, has occupied a place in Cleveland's Erie Street Cemetery since 1844. In the early 1900s there was a plan to move the grave. Chief Thunderwater took up the cause to prevent the removal of Joc O Sot's grave, however, making the dire prediction that if his body was touched, a terrible disaster would befall Cleveland. Thanks to Chief Thunderwater's efforts, the grave was not moved but restored instead.
