Rubens, a hamlet of Jewell county, is located on White Rock creek in Richland township, 6 miles northeast of Mankato, the county seat, from which place it receives mail. The population was 32 in 1910. This is one of the oldest settled communities in the county and was the scene of several Indian outrages, notable among which was an attack on the home of John Marling in 1866, when his home was destroyed and his wife and baby horribly abused.
