Sketch of Poets Life
James Whitcomb Riley, born of the
Middle West, sang the joys, sorrows,
fancies and humors of its folk, largely
in its own dialect. The world was so
touched by his inspiration and the
realism of his homely symbols that
he was one of the few, that, devoting
their lives to poetry, gained fortune.
Mr. Riley was peculiarly sensitive as
to the advance of age and evaded in
quiries as to the date of his birth. His
almost invariable answer to any ques-
tion about his age was:
This side of forty"
The poet was the son of Reuben A.
Riley, lawyer and political speaker
of Greenfield, Ind. The boy could not
be brought to the dull routine of
school days, but he was wise in the
lore of streams and fields. His mother,
who was Elizabeth Marine before her
marriage, was a writer of verse, and
Riley in later life, attributed some of
his impracticability to her.
Instead of preparing for the prac-
tlce of law, as his father wished, the
son turned itinerant sign painter. For
ten years he roved through the Ohio
valley, painting signs on fences. He
had the trick of the brush and pencil
and cleverly drew sketches illustrating
the virtues of merchandise. He was
naturally musical, and shone as a
fiddler in the villages at which his
party stopped at night. He played for
dances and at concerts in country ho-
tells. He wrote rhymes, which some
times found their way into country
newspapers.
He led this cheerful, free and easy
life late in the '70s. then he took en-
p!e ment as reporter on a newspa-
PEI at Anderson, md. In 1877, for
the purpose, he said, of proving that
he could write poetry of value, he
perpetrated the Poe hoax, which for
years was literary sensation. He
wrote a poem in the style of Edgar
Allan Poe, to which he gave the
characteristic title of "Leonanie," and
it was offered to the public as a hith-
erto unpublished product of the genius
of Poe.
In some quarters the poem was ac-
cepted as genuine; in others it was
denounced as a fraud. After the con-
troversy had waged for months Riley
confessed.
In the early sos he began writing
verses in "Hoosier" dialect for the old
Indianapolis Journal. He sent some
of his poems to Henry Wadsworth
Longfellow and they received his
praise. A volume was published and
the Hoosier poet" began to win
public. He was an excellent reader of
his own dialect verses and for the fol-
lowing fifteen years, or until 1898, he
made tours of the country, appearing
in public with great success, both
alone and in association with the hu-
morist, Bill Nye, who was his intimate
friend.
Publication of books of poems year
after year brought Riley a fortune and
wide recognition of his literary genius.
and not only in the genre form. Many
of his poems are of imaginative fan
tasy of gently philosophic.
In 1902 he received the degree of

Riley was never married. He lived
in the old family residence with his
married sister and her family, leading
a very quiet existence. He had few
familiar friends, but was a lover of
children, whose spirit he OWNED so
intimately. He cared for few books
but was devoted to the few and knew
them vitality.
