      Died:
      At the residence of James McGaw, Ogden city, May 25th, Elias Bassett, in the 69th year of his age. Deceased was the father of C.H. Bassett, Salt Lake City, and Mrs. Mary M. McGaw, Ogden city. He was born in Rensalaer county, near Albany, N.Y.; was baptized in to the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Alleghany county, N.Y., in 1843; the following year emigrated to Nauvoo, Ill,; was driven thence by mob violence in 1846; moved to Winter Quarters in 1847, recrossed the Missouri river into Iowa in 1848; and gathered here in 1852.
      Bro. Bassett was among the very few of whom it may be said, ?He never had an enemy.? He was a kind husband, a tender father and devout Christian. In life he was beloved by all who knew him, and his death is mourned by many sorrowing friends. ? COM
