Mr. William Riffle died at the residence of his daughter, Mrs. John Frey, north

been in feeble health for several years, suffering three paralytic strokes 
during the last two years, one occurring several days previous to his death.  
The gentleman was widely known, having charge of the tollgate at the edge of 
Littlestown along the Gettysburg pike from the time of its establishment until 
about five years ago.  The deceased is survived by a son and a daughter, Mr. 
Wherley Rittle, of near New Oxford, and Mrs. John Frey, with whom he resided.
