JENNESS, Martha H. (Philbrick)
1-1-1827
Paper unknown
In Lowell, MA, November 23rd, Mrs. Martha Jenness, aged 27,wife of Mr. Jonathan Jenness, formery of Rye, and daughter of Mr. Daniel Philbrick (Jr.) of Epsom, having endured a pulmonary disease of about nine years (died). About two years since she became a member of the Free Baptist Church in Epsom; but Providence saw fit to dismiss her from her membership there by her death, and we trust to unite her with the Church triumphant in heaven. During her confinement she would often express a desire to go hence and be with Christ, which was far better than to be here - yet sometimes fearful would offend by being too anxious for her departure. She has left a large circle of friends and acquintance to mourn their loss; but they mourn not as those who have no hope of the welfare of their departed relatives. She gave a consoling evidence to her friends and those who visited her occasionally, that her work was done and well done.
