  • Notes 
    • According to the 20 Aug 1935 edition of the Wisconsin Rapids Daily Tribune, Arthur and his family were seriously ill from eating poison mushrooms. There is a photo of the family on page 7.

      Just a week after the mushroom article, there is another one about a tragic automobile/train accident involving Arthur. He and another man, Ben Love, were killed instantly when struck by the train. The articles were in the 29 Aug 1935 and 05 Sep 1935 editions of the Wisconsin Rapids Daily Tribune.
