Saturday morning that Bascom L. Wells, brother of Will Wells, editor of the 
Payette Enterprise, had answered the call that morning at three A. M. and

having been born in Illinois on February 2, 1862.  Mr. Wells was the son of 
Alexander Wells, a minister of the Christian church, and became a member of 
this faith himself over forty years ago, and affiliated with the Payette Church 
of Christ upon his arrival in the Payette Valley in 1899, where he has since 
made his home.
On December 24, 1889, he and Miss Ida Spottswood were joined in marriage, to 
which one son was born, Fay C. Wells.  
He leaves to mourn his passing, his widow, one son, Fay C. Wells of Payette, 
two brothers, Sterling of Schaller, Iowa, and Will of Payette, also four 
grandchildren and a host of friends.
