- Mississippi Free Trader, Natchez, Mississippi, Friday, 19 May 1937
Murder
Old Satan seems to have been let loose among a portion of our citizens latterly, Since our last publication a Coroner?s inquest has been held over the body of Mr. Jeremiah Bass, and aged citizen of this county, who, it appears, was shot through the heart by his nephew, John Bass, a youth of 17. Bass, after the perpertration of the deed, attempted to escape, but was arrested and brought before Justice Norwood, who committed him to jail, there to await his trail at the October term of the Circuit Court.
Liberty Advocate, Mississippi, Tuesday, 24 October 1837
On Tuesday last, sentence of death was pronounced upon Duncan B. Kelly and John Bass; the former for negro stealing and the latter for murder. The sentence of the Court is to be carried into exaction on the 17th of November next.
