      QUAY 2 I found a query that mentions a letter dated 10 Jul 1920 from E. Bassett, address, Foxes Row, Carharrack, Scorrier, Cornwall, England, stating that William Bassett was dead. This letter was written to William's brother, Edward John Bassett in Houghton, Michigan, USA.

      7 Oct 1920

      Dear Brother
      I am writing you to let you know that your brother William is dead and to ask if you received any rent from him for the house in Centenary Row as he said that I should not have the rent as he was going to collect it and send it on to you, its three years + eight months since he started to collect it. I hope this will find you in good health the same as this leaves me at present. Write and leave me know if you have recieved the rents. We are having very wet weathert at present but am hoping we shall soon have some fine as we have had a very wet summer. Now I think I have written all for the time so close with best love.

      From your affectionate sister-in-law E. Bassett
