Funeral services Thursday, February 24, at 2 p.m., in her late residence, No. 318 Hawthorne street Flatbush. Interment in Greenwood. New York, Feb. 24.--This death notice in a Brooklyn newspaper yesterday told the last chapter in the history of the domestic infelicities of Thomas JENKS and his wife May, and showed the bitterness that has existed between the couple for years has been carried even to the grave. As a bequest, the hatred has been handed down to her daughter, Ida May JENKS, who inserted the death notice in the newspapers. She said it was her mother's last request that she be spoken of as an "unbeloved wife," whose death had been caused by a broken heart. Miss JENKS asserted her father's treatment had been the direct cause of Mrs. JENKS's death and when he failed to visit her in her home in Hawthorne Street the four days of her illness the wife gave her last instructions to their child to publish the facts of his indifference after her death. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NY-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!
