SUDDEN DEATH OF A CLERGYMAN - The Globe - 16th April 1844
**************************************************************
It is our painful duty to record the sudden death of Rev. Roger Bass, vicar of Austrey, Warwickshire. On Monday, as the reverend gentleman was riding near Appleby, he was observed to reel in his saddle, and then slide down to the ground. Assistance was immediately at hand, and a medical man came up at the same moment, but after sobbing twice, life became extinct.

The reverend gentleman was so universally loved by his congregation, neighbours, and friends, that the melancholy event has cast a deep gloom over the neighbourhood, and his loss will be severely felt and generally deplored.
*****************************************************************
Rev. Bass died aged 38.
Resting with Ann who died on the 10th February 1859, aged 63, in Stapenhill, Derbyshire.
Rev. Bass was a member of the well known Bass family of brewers.
