Read More	Dayton Revivew February 7, 1901 TO THE LAND BEYOND BASS Last Sunday morning, another of the faithful mothers of this county passed into the life beyond, the spirit of Mrs. James Bass taking its flight from the cares of this world into the haven of eternal rest. A long and useful life was hers, and no tribute can be too great to revere her noble life. Cassy Halloway was born at Wilkesbarre, North Carolina, March 24, 1837. There she spent her childhood days until the death of her mother, who died when the daughter was only ten years old. After her mother's death, she made her home with her uncle, Rev. William Sparks, familiarly known among the old settlers of this region as "Uncle Billy Sparks." In 1853 she removed with his family to this state, settling in Boone county. On February 29, 1857, she was married to James Bass, the young couple settling upon the old homestead in Yell township, this county, where most of hr life has been spent. A few years ago they moved to town, to rest from the toils of a long active life. Physically she was a strong healthy woman, never being sick until her last illness seized her sometime last spring. She leaves behind to mourn her loss, her husband, three sons, six daughters, and one sister, Mrs. William Fry of Yell township. Reared in a Christian family, she early accepted her Savior under the teachings of her uncle, who was a Baptist minister, and united with that church. She always lived as she professed a good Christian life, exemplifying in word and deed the faith born within her noble spirit. As one of the earliest pioneer women of this locality, Mrs. Bass endured all the privations of time. Then neighbors were five and six miles apart, and the settlers lived in constant fear of the Indians. But she lived to see the wild prairie turn into a prosperous community, the cabin and the fireplace give way to the improvements we now enjoy, and did her full share uncomplainingly in giving this region the advantages it possesses. Her last illness was full of Christian patience, and she was always ready for the final summons. Almost her last words were, "don't worry." She felt that all was well with her. She had a wide circle of acquaintances among the early settlers of the county, by whom she was held in the highest esteem. She has gone to join the pioneer band that has one by one been dropping away, and left behind her in the hearts of her family and associates the memory of a life well lived for Him who doeth all things well.
