the services were attended by
ministers and others from all
parts of Indiana and Illinois. 1t
was the largest funeral held here in
years and business was practically sus-
pended in the city during the funeral
hour. BY request Of the deceased three
ministers conducted the services. They
were: Rev. M. L. Gillespie, of Martins
Vile, Ind; DR.. w. ]. Darby, of Evans
vile, and Rev. L. w. Madden Of
Princeton.
Rev. j. r. Jenkins was the son Of
Philip and Mary Jenkins and was born
at Hill Grove, Meade county, KY, May
20, 1925. He was of family Of eleven
children and was the sixth of the fam
lily. His advantages for an education
were limited, as Philip Jenkins was
not a wealthy man, and the son was
Injured to hard labor on the farm to
help support the large family.
At the age Of nineteen years he
united with the Cumberland Presby-
terrain church and became the superin-
tendent of Sunday school class at Oil
Creek, Perry county, KY. The class
met in a school house six or seven
miles away but he walked that dis
long as he was in that county. 1t is
said that he was chosen superintend-
ent because he was the only one in
that community at that time who could
lead in prayer.
In 1S49 he was ordained a ruling eld-
er in the Cumberland Presbyterian
church, Pisgah congregation, Morgan
presbytery. In the same year he was
married to Miss Sarah e. Riley, who
died the year following.
Licensed to Preach in 1855.
In the year 1851 he went to Northern
Illinois, where he united with the Rush
vile presbytery as candidate for the
ministry of his church. But in the fall
he returned to Indiana and entered De-
taney academy at Newberg. He had
only $45 to go through school, but this
money was supplemented by work of
few hours each day. At the close of
the school year he went out in the in
terest of the American Tract society in
Warr1ck county, at a salary Of $14 per
month, furnishing his own horse. He
entered school again in October.
He was licensed to preach the gospel
April 5, 1855, and was sent to Mount
Pleasant and Cynthiana, Ind, as the
pastor His salary was small and dur
mo the summer months of that year it
was necessary for him to teach school
to supplement his salary. In the fall
arrangements were made for him to
take charge Of the Mount Zion and
Mount Pleasant congregations at a

Peril From Pinnacle Rocks.

An old officer of the coast survey thinks
that the accident to the Brooklyn, which
ran on a rock in Buzzard's bay in the
recent mimic war off the New England
coast, was caused by a pinnacle rock.
Such a rock is hard to locate. as it is
a stone spire, and one may go within six
feet Of it and never suspect its presence
A weighted rope hung between two
launches and the bottom of some unlucky
ship are the only things which can dis
cover such a rock The Pilgrim rock,
in the East river, in New York harbor,
was not discovered until the Fall river
boat of that name ran onto it. Schoolship
rock off Cottage City. Marthas Vineyard,
is another stone Of this kind, and a third
lies somewhere near the entrance to Vine
yard sound. New York harbor has one
or two other pinnacle rocks beside Pilgrim
rock

with f1fty-five members, leaving los
members in the Princeton church.
From 1880 to 1889 the church went
on it's way with good, healthy growth.
The present church building in this city
was erected during that period and
many new members were added.
In 1889 Rev. Mr.. jenkins resigned the
pastorate of the Princeton church, but
for several years did supply work for a
number of churches in this part of the
state. 1t was greatly through his in
f1uence that spirit Of unity and har-
mony was brought about, not only in
his own church, but in others as well.
When church of different denomina-
ton was not supplied with a pastor
Father Jenkins" as he was Familiarity
called, was sent for. 1t was in this
way that he endeared himself to peo-
pie of all churches in communities
where he went about doing good. He
visited the sick and the afflicted and al
ways had a smile and a kind word for
everyone.
Was a Leading Spirit.
In presbyterial work he was always
one of the leading spirits and no mans
advice and counsel was more greatly
sought after than his in such mat
tiers.
For the past few years Rev. Mr..
Jenkins had been retired from active
work in the ministry and had been liv-
ing In peace and contentment at his
home here. His declining years were
filled with happiness, although he had
not been in the best of health some
years prior to his death.
At the breaking out of the Civil war
when a company was being organized
here Rev. Mr.. Jenkins presented to
each soldier of the company Bible
that they might read Of the Great Com
mander and follow Him. A few years
ago when a company was being organ
lied for the Spanish American war he
likewise supplied the soldiers with
Bibles.

salary Of $3.50 per year. The preaching
points of the Mount Zion cir
cult were: Mount Zion, An
tioch, Pleasant Grove and Owensville.
The Mount Pleasant circuit consisted
of Mount Pleasant, Cynthiana, Walnut
Grove a number of private houses
where services were held. During his
pastorate at Mount Pleasant a new
church building was erected and the
congregation greatly strengthened.
Successful as a Pastor.
Late in 1855 he moved from Gym
thiana to Washington, Ind, and
preached to the Washington and Lee
banon congregations. His work at
Washington was not satisfactory to
himself. Lebanon was a good working
congregation and grew rapidly under
the personal influence of Rev. Mr.. Jen-
kinS.
In October, 1857, he moved from
Washington to Princeton to preach to
the Princeton congregation. This cir
cult then consisted of Bethel, Patoka
and Hazleton, in addition to Prince
ton. The first year good meetings were
held at all posts and the churches We're
very much strengthened. He continued
at Bethel eighteen months and then
asked the presbytery to release him
from that point and permit him to give
more time to the Princeton church. In
1859 he was installed as pastor OF the
Cumberland Presbyterian church here,
which then included Patoka and Enon.
He maintained this relation until 1870,
when the congregation was divided ana
a church was organized at Patoka
