Biographical History
In 1877, James Whitcomb Riley and John Oscar Henderson, editor of the Kokomo Dispatch, published a poem they claimed was written by Edgar Allen Poe. The poem was actually written by Riley, who wanted to play a joke on his detractors. The hoax ran for a considerable time before it was exposed, and continued to pop up throughout Riley's lifetime.
