Book Description
Excerpt from Some Indiana Writers and Poets The Marines were talented people, some of them being more or less prominent in literary and art circles of their time; one having been a very successful portrait painter. Mrs. Riley herself was a talented woman, and is still remembered for her literary ability; but more for her amiable character and beautiful life. There is no doubt that the poet inherited many of his mother's traits, especially her taste for literature and art, and perhaps, too, his abilities in those directions. Reuben A. Riley was a native of Pennsylvania. He was possessed of more than ordinary eloquence as a speaker, and his striking oratory is remembered with admiration by all who ever heard him. If the poet inherited his artistic and poetic talent from his mother and her people, he un doubtedly received his extraordinary command of language from his father.
