Death of J.A. Glass

After a lingering illness of eighteen months, J.A. Glass, the aged pioneer, died at his home om the Waha Prairie last evening. The direct cause of his death was dropsy of the heart. His remains will be interred in the Waha Cemetery tomorrow at 11 o'clock a.m. Rev. Henry Brown of this city will conduct services.

The deceased was an Idaho pioneer, coming to the Clearwater Valley in 1862. He was among the earliest settlers on Waha Prairie, and he has resided in that section continuously for more than a quarter century. Few men have lived a better, nobler life than this grand old pioneer, and of his extensive acquaintance leaves behind none but friends.

The deceased leaves an aged widow and four children to mourn their great loss. The children are J.R. and T.C. Glass and Mrs. William Stevenson of Waha, and Mrs. Henry Day, of Alaska.
