S. C. Bascom Dies Near Winchester; Interment In Owingsville Cemetery Monday Morning
Sylvanis Clarke Bascom, 67, died at 11:45 o'clock Saturday night, August 13, at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Henry C. Besuden in Clark county, five miles from Winchester on the Mt. Sterling road. Mr. Bascom's death was the aftermath of a paralytic stroke suffered
August 7. Since last Wednesday his condition had been critical.
A native of this county, Mr. Bascom was a son of the late A. W. and Nancy Dawson Bascom. His father, a wealthy influential citizen of this county, was one of its outstanding figures, a leader in social and civic affairs and a large breeder Of fancy cattle. Mr. Bascom was born and reared at the Bascom homestead, now the property of R. S. Cross, on Mt. Sterling road.
Following his marriage to Miss Lula Grimes of Millersburg, he moved to Bourbon county, where he engaged in farming and merchandising. Some years after the death of his wife, he moved to Clark county to make his home with his daughter.
Mr. Bascom was a perfect type of Kentucky gentleman and is pleasantly remembered here by such of his old friends and acquaintances who survive him.
Besides his daughter, Mrs. Besuden, he is survived by one half-sister, Mrs. R. G. Owings of Montgomery county and a grandson, Henry C. Besuden, Jr.
Funeral services were held at the grave in the Bascom family lot in the Owingsville Cemetery Monday morning, August 15 at 11 o'clock.
Active pall bearers were Sam Owsley, Glen E. Perry, Will Saunders, Bascom Judy, Dawson Brother and Carroll Orear; honorary, Lander Skinner, Bud Waddel, Leslie Shrout, Connor Ewing, Ewing Conner, C. G. McAlister, George Bascom, Mack Grimes and Dick Grimes.
