Jenks, who died last Thursday morning at 10 o'clock, conducted by Dr. T.D. Crites, pastor of the United Brethren church, and assisted by Dean H.W. Ward. Music was furnished by a quartet composed of J.F. Yothers, H.P. Giger, R.C. Tindall and B.F. Green. The Men's Brotherhood, an organization of which Mr. Jenks was a faithful member, attended in a body. The remains were taken to Coon Rapids, the former home, for burial, departure being made early Sunday morning, members of the family accompanying. Those acting as pall bearers were E.A. Rogers, H.D. Muckler, E.A. Benson, George Jackson, C.W. Ennis and W.A. Dexter. The following life sketch of Mr. Jenks was read at the funeral: D.J. Jenks was born in Dane county, Wisconsin, January 18, 1850, and died in Toledo, Iowa, June 10, 1915, aged sixty-five years, four months and twenty-two days, His father, Rev. Seymour Jenks, was for many years a minister in the United Brethren church, in which the deceased held membership since he was twenty-three years of age. A brother was also a minister in the United Brethren church. Mr. Jenks was the second child in a family of nine children, of which two sisters, Mrs. W.T. Holmes, of Northwood, and Mrs. A. White, of Richmond, Ohio, and two brothers, R.E. Jenks, of Clackawas, Oregon, and A.C. Jenks, of Barney, North Dakota, are living as is also his mother, at the great age of eighty-six years. His father died in 1908. Mr. Jenks came from Wisconsin to Iowa in 1869, and located on a farm near Jefferson, Green county. He was united in marriage, November 2, 1874, to Martha Ann Aldrich, by which union ten children were born, of which eight are living, two having died in infancy. The children are C.A. Jenks, Gilbert; H.E. Jenks, Laurel; Frank Jenks, Coon Rapids; Mrs. W. Hermann, Beloit, Wisconsin; Mrs. M.P. Cleghorn, Ames and Misses Georgiana, Jessie and Cora Jenks, of this city. Mr. Jenks resided with his family in Greene county until 1888, then removing to Coon Rapids, where he engaged in the grain business. In 1912 the family removed to Toledo that they might have the advantages of the church and college. Thus today a devoted wife, aged mother, three sons, five daughters, two brothers, two sisters and a host of friends mourn the departure of a loyal husband, a kind father, a considerate brother and a good neighbor and citizen, but all are nevertheless comforted in the confidence that the departed has gone to live with Jesus and to be united with those of his blood kin that have preceded him to the other world.
