Mrs. Jemima Denman was born April 8th, 1824, and died Dec. 11, 1896, at the age of 72 years, 5 months and 8 days. She was a member of the Baptist Church and was faithful to the end. Her gentle spirit has been transported to the realm of eternal day, but the example of her life still lives to bless her memory. She has run the race with patience until she fell asleep. Blessed sleep which none awake to weep. She leaves eight children and a host of friends to mourn her loss. =s
