  • A yellowed first page of a pamphlet reads "NARRATIVE OF PHEBE ANN JACOBS. BY MRS. T. C. UPHAM." Below it, a detailed illustration of a cozy house is shown beside a tree and behind a white fence, and two figures appear to be gesticulating while standing by its wall. Below, the typed biography follows in an old-fashioned font. (en)
