Miss Jennie Brennick died suddenly Sunday at her farm home near Rockdale at 11:40 p.m. She complained a few minutes before of not feeling well and went out on the porch. A physician was hastily summoned from Joliet, but she lapsed into an unconscious state and when the physician arrived, although she was still living nothing could be done for her. She rallied and bade good-bye to her brothers and sisters. Her illness lasted but ten minutes and death was the result of heart disease. Deceased was 19 years old on March 8 and was born in the old Burke residence south of Minooka. She was reared and educated there where she had lived most of her life. She was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Brennick, her father being lock-tender on the canal at Channahon. Just about a month ago the children moved from the old homestead to work a farm near Rockdale. Besides her parents she leaves five sisters and two brothers. They are Mrs Margaret Clancy who lives at the home; Mrs. Loretta McDonald, of Channahon; Misses Ruth, Theresa and Lorine; Henry and Ambrose. The remains were brought to Minooka and to the home of D. A. Henneberry. The funeral will be held tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock from St. Mary's Catholic church in Minooka, Rev. Father McMahon, officiating. Interment in the Catholic cemetery there. Deceased was a lovable character, a splendid Christian young woman who had many friends and her sudden death just in the bloom of youth has cast a pall of sadness over the community.
