There arrived here for burial on Tuesday the remains of Thos. Riley, who died Sunday at the home of his son-in-law, William Riley in Winona, with whom he has resided since the family removed from Lansing about ten years ago.

His age was 69 years. Interment was in the new Catholic cemetery. He had been ill about a week. He was known while here as "Black Tom" to distinguish him from another of the same name.
