EMIL T. HAUGLAND (Emil Tobias Haugland) - Vol II, pg 731-732
Emil T. Haugland, a member of the Minneapolis bar and a veteran of the World
war, was born in Iowa, June 13, 1887, his parents being Rasmus O. and Sarah
(Sunderland) Haugland. The father came to America from Norway, in 1845, and
established his home in Iowa as one of its pioneer settlers. He still lives in
that state and has reached the venerable age of ninety years.
Emil T. Haugland was reared on a farm with the usual experiences of the farm
bred boy who divides his time between the duties of the schoolroom, the
pleasures of the playground and the work of the fields. His early educational
training was received in the rural schools and later at Waldorf College at
Forest City. He also attended St. Olaf College at Northfield, Minnesota, where
he pursued his literary course. He next matriculated in the St. Paul College of
Law at St. Paul, Minnesota, and on the comple­tion of his law course was granted
his professional degree as a member of the class of 1916. The same year he was
admitted to the bar and through the intervening period he has practiced alone,
making steady progress as a capable attorney, save for the period of his service
in the World war.
On the 30th of April, 1918, Mr. Haugland enlisted as a private, becoming a
member of Company C, Fifty-fourth Regiment of the Sixth Division. He served in
France and participated in the Alsace-Lorraine, the Meuse and the Argonne
offensives, thus taking part in three major offensives. He was made a corporal
and was honorably discharged April 23, 1919.
Mr. Haugland is recognized as one of the strong and forceful young lawyers of
Minneapolis, practicing both as counsel and as advocate. He prepares his cases
with great thoroughness and care and his presentation is always clear and
logical, so that he wins many favorable verdicts, his entire professional career
being notably success­ful. He belongs to the Delta Theta Phi, a legal fraternity
of the St. Paul College of Law. He also has membership with the Sons of Norway,
with the Odin Club and with the Veterans of Foreign Wars. Professionally he is a
member of the Minnesota State Bar and the Bench and Bar of Minneapolis. Duty and
service have ever been upper­most in his career and he is of that high type of
American citizen that does not hesi­tate to sacrifice personal interest to the
public good.
