He was educated at the Jesuit college at Grand Coteau and took the law course at Yale, from which he graduated in 1853. In February, 1854, he came to Texas and settled at Brenham, Washington county, in the practice of law. In 1857 he formed a partnership with Honorable John Sales, which continued, except for the period of the war, for nearly thirty years. In 1886 he associated with him Messrs. J.C. and E.B. Muse under the firm name of Bassett, Muse & Muse and in 1889, he and his present partner, J.C. Muse removed to Dallas, where they at once entered into a large and active practice.
