Internment took place at the Hubbard cemetery by the side of his mother, the burial services being attended by a large number of the old time residents of that community. Robert William Glass was born at Elliota, Filmore County, Minn., on January 18, 1857. In 1870 he with his parents moved to Floyd, Iowa. The year 1880 he came to Hubbard County where he resided for some years, also living for a time at Verndale and Duluth. Coming again to this county he was united in marriage to Miss Edith W. Mascol [sic: Maskell] at Park Rapids. To this union four children were born, Robert of Park Rapids, Mrs. Oral Tullis and Frances of Sebeka and an infant daughter who died at birth.
