Mr. Plumstead pt Winona.
Riley's 'Raggedy Man’ was given with the same childish abandon that •Mr. Riley himself gives to this poem of childhood. The little' people never weary of Riley’s selections, and the ‘Raggedy Man’ is always a favorite. Mr. Riley wrote his ‘Raggedy Man’ here’ at Winona. It was written and given in response to a toast made by the Hoosier poet at a banquet of the Western Association of Writers, given at the Winona Hotel.”—-From Winona Assembly Review.
