George Bassett Passes
The Washtucna community was saddened Saturday morning to learn of the
death of George Bassett of Colfax, son of C.S. Bassett, who lived here many
years. He was a grandson of Mrs. G.W. Bassett. The lad, who was about eleven
years of age at the time of his death, which occurred October 28, at the St.
Ignatius hospital in Colfax following an operation for appendicitis, was born
here and since his removal to Colfax a few years ago, has often visited
relatives at this place. The boy had been ailing a few years, but his
condition was not considered serious, although an operation seemed advisable
and from the condition of the appendix it would have ruptured shortly. The
operation seemed successful and the doctor was tieing the last stitch, when
for no apparent reason, the heart stopped beating.
The funeral service was held from the Methodist church at Colfax Rev.
Bell officiating. The Rev. D.A. Russell of Spokane, assisting. The Methodist
choir sang three favorite hymns of the boy, who had been a regular attendant
at the church. The floral offerings were beautiful. Those attending from here
were: Mr. and Mrs. Wm. A Pearce and family, Mrs. G.W. Bassett, Mrs. Georgia
McCabe, Mr. and Mrs. L.L. Bassett and family and Dr. Victor, Rev. and Mrs.
D.A. Russell and Mrs. Victor attended from Spokane and Dr. and Mrs. Sherfey
from Pomeroy.
