| Page 8 of 70. Prophecy reads, "Again the will of fate seems strange, for what sister is this devoutly worshipping in this quiet corner of the convent? As she lifts her head, we recognize the features of Jane Kyle. She has retired from the frivolous worldly life of Downsville to the quiet and solitary one that leads every one to speak of our class mate as Sister Jane." Curious as this prophecy may make us about Jenny B. Kyle's life, she has left very few traces. Her marriage to C.C. Taylor indicates that she chose another path than the prophecy foresaw. In 1945, she died in Dayton, Ohio. Information about Jenny B. Kyle has been researched through her obituary. |
