a good time to make the annual
fall check of the farmstead for

found, either make the neces-

clothing were passed to each

Sealy, Sept. 28.—He had a
date to buy his wedding ring,
but he kept a date with death.
Wilborn Durwood Riley 24-
year-old medical student, resid-
ing in Houston, took his own
life with poison late Saturday,
only a week before he was to
marry Miss Margaret Kocurek,
27-year-old nurse whom he met
last June.
Mr. Riley’s body was found
by his fiancee, sprawled across
a bed in the apartment at 1834
W. Main the young couple had
rented and were furnishing as
their future home.
Beside the bed was a bottle of
cyanide poison and in the bath-
room was a glass with poison
crystals in the bottom. Justice
Ragan ruled the death suicide.
Mr. Riley, who lived at 1206
Missouri, was a Baylor Medical
student and an externe at
Methodist Hospital, where Miss
Kocurek was a nurse.
“I met him last June,” she told
the police. “We became engaged
on Sept. 9 and planned to be
married next Friday.
“We rented the apartment 10
days ago and had started buying
’ furniture.
“Wilborn was to have varnish-
ed the floors of the apartment
on Saturday and in the after-
noon we had planned to buy the
wedding rings.
“He did not meet me at the
hospital when I got off from
work. In the afternoon I went
to the apartment and found him
lying across the bed.”
The body of Mr. Riley was
sent to his former home at Cle-
burne for burial today. He is
survived by his parents, Mr. and
Mrs. Otis Riley, a brother, Earl,
and a sister, Mrs. Patricia Bus-
by, all of Cleburne.—Houston
Press.
Miss Kocurek is a Wallis girl
and served as county school
nurse last year. Since her resig-
nation she has been with the
Methodist Hospital in Houston.
