Riley v. Board of Trustees of Policemen's Pension Fund

It appears from the record that the plaintiff has lived in the city of Des Moines for more than a quarter of a century, and that, at various times for many years, as will appear more in detail hereafter, he served on the police- force in the city of Des Moines, which is a municipal corporation of the first class, established and acting under a commission form of government.
