The Fulton County news. (McConnellsburg, Pa.): December 07, 1899
Many were the eyes that were moistened with tears when the sad intelligence flashed
abroad that Mrs. Jennie May Akers, wife of Postmaster James S. Akers, of Akersville,
had passed over the cold, icy billows of death, and gone to join her mother and a
host of her loved ones who had passed from life to eternity before her...
Tuesday morning about one o'clock her spirit flew away to the God who gave it, and
on the following day, the body, in a beautiful black casket, was borne from the
house to the church by six young men, followed by a host of relatives and friends.
After an impressive funeral sermon founded on these words - "Blessed are they which
die In the Lord"- her remains were interred in the Akersville Cemetery.
The deceased was twenty-nine years, five month's, and twenty-eight days of age, and
leaves to mourn her loss a devoted husband, two children, Maude, aged ten years, and
Carl, aged eight years, a father, one sister, one brother, and a great number of
relatives and friends who have the sympathy of all who knew her.
