Another Old Settler Gone.
Mr. Jas. F. Bassett died in Minneapolis last Monday noon. Mr. Bassett was born in Sag Harbor, Suffolk Co. Long Island, state of New York, Nov. 5, 1824. He came to McGregor in 1857, when he and Mr. W. F. Huntting engaged in the grocery business until 1860, when he and Mr. Huntting engaged in the produce business extensively under the firm name of Bassett, Huntting & Co. and continued the same up to 1887 when Mr. Bassett moved to Minneapolis,
He was always considered a good neighbor and a reliable business man under all circumstances. The survivors of the family are Mrs. Bassett, Kate now Mrs. Kimball, residing in Boston, Bertha, now Mrs. Dr. Lewis in Minneapolis, and Miss Georgia, living with her mother in Minneapolis. All of whom we can assure have the sympathy of old friends in McGregor.—McGregor Times.
