520			_aFor many years Riley Plantation has been dear to my heart and now that is rapidly passing out of existence, I feel that some record of it should be made while people left who have known about it. My ancestors were pioneers in the Sunday River Valley, where they changed the wooded land into productive farms, but because of the great distance from markets, it did not appeal to the children of the third and fourth generations whose minds turned to the rapidly expanding opportunities of the larger and distant places. After lumbering interests bought up the lands for the paper mills, the organized Plantation gradually disappeared and the area is now classed as "Wild Land".
