A biographical sketch Of the life
and death Of Francis Granville Jen-
ningS, who fell on the battl.f fl Id in
France, July lhh 1918,
Mortally wounded, and died from
wounds, brother Jennings was one o!
the first soldiers boys to go from Taney

Brother Jennings was converted to the
religion CT our Lord and Savior Jesus
Christ, in July 1912, and united with
the general Baptist Church at Pleasant
Hill, OF which he was a faithful mem
Der and leader in Prayer Meetings
and Sunday School. He was always
present at his Church meetings and il
there was anything to be done he was
ready 20 do his part, and his letters
show that he kept it up even after he
went to the training camps, that in
the presence Of hundreds Of wicked
men, he would read his Bible and talk
10 them about salvation.
While it is hard TO give him up, yet
it affords US great comfort to know that
he was ready to go, and wos willing TO
give his If: for his country. He has
made the great sacrifice and win come
up out OF great tribulationS, in the
great judgement morning and will be
one Of them that John saw that had
their robes washed and made white.
While the Church, and his dear old
mother will miss him, for he is a great
loss 10 his mother, yet We are glad, il
he had 10 20 that he was ready.
All the writer can say TO his relatives
is TO be prepared to meet him in that
land where no wars will ever come to
rob US Of our dear boys. We noun
not as others who have no hope.
