Arthur had been in a car accident which lodged a chunk of wood in his body that caused pain; after a long time the severe pain bothered him so he killed himself. It is said that he was, apparently, a gigolo; he was with a woman named Susanne Holmes, who they called the 'Silver Queen' because she was married to a silver magnate of Nevada.
