Two months ago their mother and baby brother were drowned on the steamer Goodyear. Their father, FRANK BASSETT, left his occu- pation as steward on a lake vessel, broken hearted. He secured employment on the D. U. R. and Monday evening when taking his car out he touched a live wire and was killed by the shock. The children are with their grandmother, MRS. EMMA BASSETT. ===========================================================================
