Anne Bassett nee Fraser
The hand of death (says the Observer of yesterday) has removed another of the pioneers of the Wairarapa from our midst, in the person of Mrs. Anne Bassett (wife of Mr. David Bassett, one of our oldest and most respected settlers), who breathed her last at the residence of her son-in-law, Mr. Robert Dixon, South Carterton, last night. The deceased lady arrived from Scotland in the ship Queen Margaret in the year 1855, and has resided in the Wairarapa ever since. She leaves two sons and two daughters, and a number of grandchildren to mourn her loss. About three years ago she had an attack of paralysis, from which she never recovered, and has continued in a very feeble condition to the time of her death, enduring her affliction with patience and resignation.
