  Notes	Falmouth Enterprise, Saturday, November 12, 1921 Bourne Word was received by relatives here on Saturday of the death of Zelotes Bassett of West Medford. Mr. Bassett resided here with his parents when a young man, and several years ago came back and built a summer home which he with his family occupied during the summer months. Since early spring he had not been in the best of health, but it was not thought to be anything serious until within the last few weeks when he grew rapidly worse, which resulted in an operation performed on Saturday morning and from which he did not rally. In early manhood he married Miss Ella Lovell of Sandwich, who survives him, with two sons, six daughters and several grandchildren, who will sadly miss in the home the devoted husband and kind father. He was the brother of Mrs. Bertha Holway, wife of Mrs. Russel Holway, who passed away at her home here last February. Mr. Bassett, for a number of years, held the position of superintendent of the sewerage plant of West Medford and was looking forward to the time when he would retire on a pension and come to Bourne to make his permanent home. Funeral services were held at his late home on Tuesday afternoon. Those who attended from here were his nephew, Wendell Holway and sisters, Mrs. Clifton Burgess, Mr. and Mrs. Calvin Harris and Mrs. Frank Henshaw. 1900 Federal Census of Medford, Middlesex County, Massachusetts (7 Jun 1900) Zelotus A.
