    Their family consists of four daughters, Mrs. Charles Howerton, Mrs. G.S. Hoover and Mrs. D.N. Davis, of Rossville and Mrs. Nora Hoover, of Holton, and one son, Herman, who lives with his parents. There are five grand-daughters, two grandsons, one great grandson and one great granddaughter.

    Mr. Hass is a veteran of the Civil War, being honorably discharged at the close of the war after seeing three years service.
