The 3cm. tors wife, the former M15; 3.11m Thomson of Darnley, P.E.I..went to the west with him as a bride in 1890'. She predeceased him in .1939, A son Kenneth died in May, i945, Besides his immediate fasniiy, the Senator is mourned by llllilllpgf. able friends from every element, of Society from coast to coast in» Cflflldl- His community and hi; friends have been immeasurably enriched by his life. i-lls memory will ions Hneer so the nem- of all who knew him.

Senatorial honors were confer- red on Dan Riley ln 1925, n; u. knowiedgrnent of his service; t, the western livestock industry and his familiarity with s11 quog- tlons affecting the west. since hi; appointment he never missed s. session at Ottawa and has made substantial contributions in a na. tionsl sense. Heb was s blur-tor member of the Western Stoch Growers Association and at tho time of his death was honorary president. f-le was also honorary Dltsidlmt of the High River Rodeo Association and o: the High River 01d Timers Association maintain- ing active interests in these and other local organizations. He was u. charter member c-i the Masonic! Lodge st High River, having join- ed that order as a young man be. fore he left Prince Edward Island in 168i.

Started As Teacher

Din Riley first started adult life as a young school teacher, m, save up teaching sohool, to m. swer the csii to the west lfflyina n wmnloes in the spring of m1. tie remained there for two yearn to make the stake that would N"? him farther westlwsrd. In the spring cf 1882i he travelled as far as Regina by rail, then yo- Svftills to a Red River cart ‘to continue his journey through m- gin land. In late May. 1868, ‘iTo reached The Crossing on tho lush-wood River and the present site of’ the town, the lush "native brass growing so abundantly, the W!!!) of the I-iighwood Valley, i-he flowing stream and the Rock- ies in the distance provided a set- ting which satisfied him through all the subsequent» yearn. At that time the country was s cattlernsn’: paradise with great Company herds pouring in from the south. Many s future ‘rancher served his: apprenticeship in those years and Den Riley was one of. these. He took up a homestead a few miles west of High giver on “Round T" to further cement his intend- ed residence.

in these years however, there. was Indian alarms and the North West Rebellion was developl g. In. mes he volunteered for service and was assigned the task of des- patch rider to keep open lines of wnmunicstion between Iidmon-l ton and Bettie River. This was at ride of to miles made every as hours through the hessnds of 1n- dlsn reservations. It was on ex- perience to train s man down. but it did bring reward in rough’ knowledge of the" north and gnodt pay. Returning to High River he was associated with the "U" ranch- of the lste Wit. l-full ‘west of Nanton. l-le was “remrod" for the l-lull outfit, learning the costly lessons of that hard winter i886- 37 when s great proportion of stock was lost in the storms.

Vivid Memory

The dry years of the early nine- ties were also s vivid memory to the Senator but he never lost laithl in the tiitllnate goodness of Al- berta. l-lis courage bolsterod- many s wavering settler and . he be- friended scores of people in those years as in later years. lie never felled s friend in a crisis. The coming of the ssrlwiturai eru found hfm weibprspersd with his grain farm near town and sub- stantial ranch property in the foothills. His home in the town and s short period in the reel es- tate business linked him firmly also with the interests’ 4 of growing settlement of llish ftlver. As a cowboy, dospsteh rider. farmer, rancher, one of the founders of. the town. the habit ed responsibility for obhers was car- ried easily en his broad should- ers. ft was logical that he should be eieotedse first steror of riish ami- in teos and somber of the

The eventful years of the first Great War in whichthe Senators two eldest sons served and re- turned safely were iollowed by difficult post-war period; drought, feed shortage and the disastrous winter of 1919-20 were capped by imposition of prohibitive U.S. tar- itlfs. 1t was in this period that Dan Riley performed a great service to thecettle lnclustry. In his capacity as president of the Western Stock Growers Associa- tion, he asscmbled indisputable data on every phase of the indus- try presenting these st Ottawa, and before interested organiza- tions in. eastern Csnsds, and in the United States. l-ils personal affairs were set aside to serve the industry es a whole and he prov- ed sn effective and convincing spokesman Ln presenting the case for the beef cattle industry.

Shipments To Britain

Again in the early thirties when the. Fordney~£mott tariffs de- moralized Canadian beef markets, Senator Riley and sons were am~ ong the first to ciopcrimenl: trial shipments of livestock to Britain. ‘rials-was a hazardous effort to develop now markets for the in- dustry.

Last Rites

Last rites for Senator DI. Riley were observed at his home town of High River on Saturday afternoon May ist., 1M8. Owing to the ‘ passable condition oil the street on which the United- church is situated, it was neces- ssry to hold the funeral services in the Town Hall. And even the town hall was scarcely adequate for the hundreds oi people who gathered to express their regard for this much loved leading citiz- en, Business places were closed as a mark of respect and there was m very large representation from High River, from Calgary and frcm the neighboring towns that are on the highway. But scores of friends from the foothills and. country points were PNVEHWQ from attendance by road condi- tions. Rev. G. Hutchinson, pastor c»! Chimera Presbyterian Church- conducted the service assisted by Rev. J.W. Bainbridge of the Un- ited chm-oh, A joint choir from town churches led in musical ser- vice and the soloist w!“ W-A- 501* iier whose selection was “In the Garden”. H. Pollard was pianist. The entire front of the hall was massed vuith flowers beautifully arranged and an eloquent tribute

at ottsovs and elsewhere to gain concessions which might make the overseas market profitable. Senate ‘s life has been interwoven- with the cattle industry of the west. Like many another of the plOTlCOfu he absorbed strengthl fromthe Rockies. breadth oi‘ vis- ion ircm the prairies, and ever- renewed spirit frcm the electric air. His kindliness was all embrac- ing and he never outgrew his en-' Joyment of the tall story. the solemn recital 0i Whifihl he had brought to n fine art. Bull when dealing with serious mat-i fer-s he had a direct incisive habit- od speech which carried weight) with everjyone- becatilit it was backed by thought and good. judgment.

An Nfpbft in riding, fishing and hunting even into‘ very recent

years, mhe Senator scarcely class-

ified these ss recreations because they" had for so long been a seri-

ous rt of the business oi living. ut one lifetime recen- tlonsl hobby was his annual

trek to the mountains on pros~ pectin: trips. Every summer ‘m. slack times, he and his sons on other good companions drifted. through the silent valleys of the Rockies. l-ie always returned re- juvenated and satisfied he didn't find mineral. but he found a re- freshment fhat no money could; buy. No later than last summer the Senator and his sons enjoyed a camping trip in the hills. One of his sssocistes-"in prospecting in» past years was the istc Lafayette French, the firm believer in the fabulous lunon mine. The Sena- tor vwu completely in French's confidence and the legend proved. so intriguing that he wrote the drrmasnd-tzsgedy of the missing. mine which was published recently an g msgsrlne article.

When Senator Riley received his appointment to the Senate it was feared that he might he ob- liged to relinquish some of his local interests. Nothing of the kind happened. He was unchanged. and unchanging in his allegiance to the foothills country in which- the years of his manhood had been so purposefully spent.
