| 701 | The County Record, Kingstree, South Carolina, September 15, 1921 Sad Death of Young Lady Monday evening about six o?clock friends of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Bass of Lane were deeply grieved to learn of Mrs. Bass? death, which had unexpectedly occurred at the hospital here following the birth of an infant, her first born. Before her marriage to Mr. Bass about one year ago, the deceased was a Miss Koontz of Arkansas, and at the time of her death was less than twenty years of age. Mr. Bass is from Rock Hill, a nephew of Mr. R.L. Bass, and since bringing his wife to this community they have made many friends. The young wife was especially attractive and by her sweet and noble disposition endeared herself to everyone she came in contact with. At the Kelley Sanitarium where she was taken Sunday afternoon, everything possible was done for her comfort and relief, but the physical condition of her constitution was such that she did not respond to scientific methods of treatment and she gradually grew weaker, passing away about 6 o?clock. Her little baby survives and is doing well. The remains of the young lady were taken to her late home at Lanes Monday night and thence to Rock Hill Tuesday for interment. | Koonce, Alvene (I3622)

| 704 | The Daily News, Galveston County, Texas, Tuesday, 14 January 2025 Roland Louis Bassett GALVESTON, TX ? Roland Louis Bassett, exemplary husband, father and grandfather, passed away at UTMB in Galveston on January 7, 2025. Roland was born December 6, 1938, to parents Cecil Emerson Bassett and Opal Alvina Baltz in Council Grove, Kansas and lived in Mexico, Nebraska and Louisiana before choosing Galveston as his home. Roland graduated from University High in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut. He said the best thing that ever happened to him was meeting and marrying his wife, Adrienne. They met while he was at Tulane Law School in New Orleans and eloped to Baton Rouge in 1962. Last year, they celebrated 62 years of marriage. In 1964, the pair moved to Galveston where Roland practiced law for more than 60 years. He was an active civic servant and considered it a privilege to serve his community. A lawyer by trade, Roland left an indelible mark on the island through his work, assisting many with legal incorporation and the formation of many charities. A Galveston College Regent, he helped establish its Universal Access scholarship program which has benefited thousands of young Galvestonians with tuition support. Roland chose Moody Methodist Church as his place of worship. He devoted his time and talent to being active in Church affairs and serving on several of its Boards and Committees. He was a founding member and Trustee of the Permanent Endowment Fund of Moody Methodist Church and Chairman of its Asset Management Committee. The fund serves non-profits whose focus areas include education, religious mission and ministry, health and wellness and crisis support services. For more than 40 years, Roland devoted himself to the Rosenberg Library. There, he was President for 15 years, and later became Treasurer. A devoted Rotarian, he served as the Galveston Rotary Club's Director and as a member of its foundation. He was elected as a Galveston City Council member and to the Galveston College Board. He served as Chairman of the Galveston Wharves Board. He also served on other boards including the Galveston Symphony, Galveston Housing Authority, Salvation Army of Galveston, Chamber of Commerce and the United Way of Galveston. In the 1990s, Roland and Adrienne lived in Albania volunteering with the American Bar Association's Central & East European Law Initiative. There Roland assisted the new Albanian government in writing commercial laws following the collapse of the worst form of Communism ever devised. Roland is predeceased by his parents and his brother Cecil. He is survived by his wife Adrienne and their three boys Roland, Jr. and wife Michele, Mark and wife Mary Beth, Keith and wife Genette, and six grandchildren Bryson, Grace, Jordan, Anna, Alex and Allison. He is survived by a nephew, Dr. Cecil Bassett III. He is also survived by his brother-in-law Dr. Donald Strain and his children Sherri, Gregory, Susan, Cathy and Michael. The family is forever grateful to the caregivers at UTMB Jennie Sealy, the P.A.M. Rehabilitation Hospital, All Care Home Health and Right at Home for their love and kindness. Visitation will be held on Friday, January 17, 2025 at J. Levy & Termini Funeral Home, 2128 Broadway in Galveston from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. A funeral service will be held Saturday, January 18, 2025 at Moody Methodist Church 2803 53rd Street, at 2 p.m. The family requests that any donations in lieu of flowers go to the Rosenberg Library, 2310 Sealy Street, Galveston, Texas 77550 or to the Galveston Rotary Club Foundation, P.O. Box 810, Galveston, Texas 77553. The Daily News, Galveston County, Texas, Thursday, 9 January 2025 Longtime Galveston leader Roland Bassett dies at 88 Keith Bassett spoke with both sorrow and amusement while recalling his father's life. "He was a normal dad, and we weren't perfect children by any means," Bassett said with a slight laugh. "We gave him plenty of headaches, but he rarely told us how to live our lives and what to do. He was a leader by example." Roland Bassett, hailed by locals for his work as a longtime island leader, died Wednesday at the University of Texas Medical Branch. He was 88. "Everything you can think good about somebody, that's Roland Bassett," Jim Yarbrough, who serves on the Wharves Board of Trustees, said. "He just was a class act on top of being a terrific professional attorney, ultimate gentleman, ethical, honest, tell you like it is but in a nice way. "I just had so much respect for him that he was above reproach. He was top notch in every regard." Bassett, an attorney, served as a city councilman, a member of the Galveston Housing Authority board, on the city Planning Commission, the Galveston Central Appraisal District board and the Wharves Board of Trustees, and the United Way board, among others. He was president of the Rosenberg Library board for 15 years, served on several boards at Moody United Methodist Church, and was chairman of the Galveston Regional Chamber of Commerce. But it was 40 years as a Rotarian that truly summed up Roland Bassett's life, his son said. "We always joked that the Rotarians have the four-way test ?" he said, trailing off as his voice began to break. "He truly lived his life by that four-way test." The four-way test is: Is it the truth? Is it fair to all concerned? Will it build goodwill and better friendships? Will it be beneficial to all concerned? "He was a second-generation Rotarian," Keith Basset said. "My grandfather was born in the early 1900s and he was instrumental in a Rotary club in Dallas, so my dad had always followed that example." Family also joked that Bassett was "the man with many lives," his son said. "He had suffered a heart attack, had open-heart surgery and a stroke back in early 2000s and then he had a stroke in 2015," he said. "He had prostate cancer back in the early 2000s as well. He had various ailments over the years, but he had rebounded from everything." Right before Thanksgiving, Bassett fell and was hospitalized. Not long before he was scheduled to be released, he had a stroke. He had begun rehabilitation and was adapting to a new normal, Bassett said, but on Friday fell ill and never recovered. "Roland was a friend," City Manager Brian Maxwell said. "His son is my best friend. So, there were lots of opportunities to have and share good times with Roland and his wife and the entire Bassett family. "Roland has left a legacy that will be hard for anyone to surpass, but more importantly, he instilled that service of community in his sons who are involved across our city in making this a better place for everyone from the chamber, economic development, scouting and even the city pension board." Yarbrough said Bassett was someone he tried to emulate and set a standard to which Yarbrough held himself. "What I was always impressed with was just his ethics," he said. "I mean, he was just a straight shooter and he'll be missed." That sentiment was echoed by Maxwell. "People like Roland Basset don't come around every day," he said. "Galveston lost a good man and I and my family lost a dear friend." Bassett is survived by his wife of 62 years, Adrienne, and their three sons ? Roland Jr., Mark and Keith. All information on services still was pending as of Thursday, but visitation will take place Jan. 18 at J. Levy & Termini Funeral Home, 2128 Broadway, with the funeral to follow the next day at Moody United Methodist Church, 2803 53rd St. | Bassett, Roland Louis (I7752)

| 750 | The Chattanooga Daily Rebel, Tennessee, October 7, 1862 Dr. William Bass Dr. William Bass, a physician of this city, and son of John M. Bass, who has been connected with a gorilla party for some time now in this vicinity, met with a violent death a few nights ago. A guard of federal soldiers placed at the house of Mrs. Gen. Harding, in the country, at her request, to protect her property, had been fired on and captured by a party of gorillas led by Mr. Bass and an order was issued for his arrest. A party of soldiers were sent to a house where he had secreted himself to arrest him. He attempted to make his escape and was twice halted by the soldiers. He paid no attention to the command, when one of the fired on him with fatal effect. Bass Place The Bass Place, on the Charlotte Pike, six miles west of Nashville, formerly known as theh old Watkins homestead, was originally owned by W.E. Watkins, one of the noted men of his day. The original tract wa one thousand acres, running along the Charlotte Pike from the Cockrill place to the old Davison homestead, and backing on the Cumberland River. The old house of some fifteen rooms was built of brick and stone, bhe brick being molded and burned and the stone quarried and hauled by the slaves. The floors of this hold house were hand dressed and of ash, the sleepers and rafters werer cut out by hatchet and adz and are as good today as when put into the house. The shingles were of cedar and hand made and some of them are on the house today, though this building was completed about 1850. The only daughter of W.E. Watkins married Dr. William Bass. Of this union there were five sons. Those living are Major W.J. Bass of Chattanooga, and O.E. Bass of West Nashville, both of whoem now own a greater part of the old tract. During the Civil War a great many important events took place on this property. Dr. William Bass left home to cast his lot with General Forrest, was commissioned captain and ordered to Nashville to recruit a troop of cavalry. After Captain Bass had recruited a troop of cavalry he came in close to Nashville and passed one night at Genral Harding?s on the Harding Pike, known as ?Belle Meade?. Some of the negroes informed the Federals of his whereabouts, but he got away in time not be captured. A night or so after this, Captain Bass, with a few select men, went into camp on the Cumberland River, near the Charlotte Pike and alone went to see his wife and children at the old Watkins place, leaving orders for his troop or cavalry to come for him a three o?clock in the morning in order that they might attack the Federal pickets stationed on the Barrow hill, near Nashville. Some of the darkies on the place learned of Captain Bass? arrival at home and immediately reported to the Federals at Nashville. The Thirty-third Michigan Regiment was ordered out (and it is not stated definetly who was commander, whether Rosecrans or Alger). This regiment reached the old house, and called upon Captain Bass to come out. He came to the front door, thinking the call was from his own men, and without a word of warning he was host shot down by this Federal regiment, and left in the front yard. Hardly a part of his body escaped the bullets. The old home was ransacked and lmost torn to pieces. Captain Bass? wife, with five little children, was left on the place alone, every negro being ordered away. W.E. Watkins, then nearly seventy years of age, was also taken prisoner to the city. This young mother, with her five children was left to care for as best she could the murdered husband, and it was several days before proper burial arragenments could be perfected, the Federals refusing to allow anyone to pass through the lines and declining to permit andy help whatever. Several days after this, Forrest came ito this section and had his revenge. Several gunboats were captured on the river and burned. Before these gunboats were captured, an attempt was made to destroy the old house, and several cannon balls were shot through it. On the river banks, high in the hills, there are many graves where the dead are buried, with no marks to distinguish them. The writer of this article recalls, as a child, standing by and seeing four or five soldiers burierd in a trench, in their uniforms, the Federals in one place and Confederates in another. Much more could be written of the same history, but what is the use of recalling to this generation the bloody deeds and cruelty of a generation that is past.
