Middle Ga. Argus – Week of July 28, 1883
Mrs. M. J. Penn

A shadow of gloom was spread over our town on last Wednesday morning buy the 
death of Mrs. M. J. Penn, which occurred at 4 o’clock.  Mrs. Penn had been 
suffering for several weeks from fever, but as she had been improving since the 
first attack, her death was unexpected.  She bore her sufferings with Christian 
fortitude and without a murmur, and finally met death with a smile, saying 
among her last words, “Up! Up higher! Sweet home!”  As a wife, mother, neighbor 
and friend, Mrs. Penn was all of that, and more, she was a good and true 
Christian, having been a member of the Methodist church for over sixteen 
years.  She leaves a devoted husband and three children to mourn her loss.  May 
He who tempers the winds to the shorn lambs, temper this sore affliction of the 
bereaved ones.
