From 1919 to 1923, he was Minister of Public Works, which was not a cabinet post at the time. Jennings did not run for reelection in 1924. He later became manager of the wholesale stamp department of the St. John's post office. Jennings retired to Windsor, Ontario in the late 1920s.[3] He died there on November 1, 1942.[4]
