An Ex-Minister Kills Himself

Rev. Frank Riley is Found Dead in a Room in Atlanta

Atlanta, Ga., April 13 – Rev. Frank Riley, a former well-known minister in the 
South Georgia Conference, and now agent for the Empire Mutual Life Insurance 
Company, committed suicide this morning by asphyxiation.  He was found dead in 
his room.

It appears that he had barricaded the door and then turned on the gas.  He has 
a wife and seven children.  His wife is connected with the mission at the 
terminal station, and she, with several of her children, left home early this 
morning.  The odor of gas attracted the neighbors, who found Riley dead in bed.
