Riesen, 88. Mr. Riesen died Jan. 29 after a long illness, and his wife became ill the day of his funeral and was a patient at the Hillsboro hospital until her passing on Feb. 9. They had lived in Hillsboro since retiring from the farm. Mr. Riesen was born in Russia and came to America in 1874, while Mrs. Riesen was born near Goessel. Arthur Riesen of Newton is one of five surviving sons.
