William H.

His condition was much improved during the first three weeks in Colorado, but a few days ago he grew worse and sank rapidly until death relieved him of his suffering. Mr. Bass is survived by his wife, three sons, Percy, William H. and Murray, two daughters, Ruby and Margaret, all of 2420 Marshall street, this city; a sister, Mrs. R.S. Wilson, of 2304 Louisiana street, and a brother, Frank Bass, of Warren.

For many years Mr. Bass has been prominently connected with the Arkansas Traveleres? organization, and at the time of his death was secretary of the local post, and was also an associate editor of the Arkansas Travelers? Magazine. He had many friends throughout the state, his genial temperament and good nature endearing him to all who knew him.
The body will be brought to Little Rock for burial. No arrangements have yet been made for the funeral.
