Dr. James V. Arburn, age 55 years, a well-known veterinary and citizen of Gibson county, passed away Sunday morning at 10 o'clock at his home, four miles east of the city, on the Princeton-Francisco road.

Mr. Arburn had been in failing health for the past two years, however, he had never been confined to his home. He became sick Saturday morning and his condition gradually became worse. Death was due to stomach trouble.

No definite funeral arrangements have been made pending the arrival of relatives. The services will be held at the late residence in charge of Rev. Amos Bastin, of the Heights Chapel M. E. church. Interment in Maple Hill cemetery.

James V. Arburn, the son of the late John W. Arburn and Mrs. Margaret Arburn, was born on October 25, 1870, on a farm in the neighborhood where he spent his entire life. He attended a veterinary college and for the past thirty years had practiced through Gibson county. He was united in marriage to Miss Emma Wilkinson, of Chrisney, Ind., and to this union several children were born, three of whom survive.

Surviving to mourn the death of Dr. Arburn is the widow, two daughters, Miss Esther, a primary teacher in the Francisco schools; Miss Mildred C., a teacher in the public schools at Oakland City, and one son, Howard, a well-known farmer, residing near Francisco and aged mother, Mrs. Margaret Arburn, 319 west Emerson street, this city, two sisters, Mrs. Charles F. Stevens, 827 east State street this city, and Mrs. Lester McClure, of Pueblo, Colo., and two brothers, Ellis Arburn, in east State street and Walter Arburn, in east Spruce street, together with a number of other relatives.

The sudden death of Dr. Arburn comes as a shock to his many friends and casts a gloom over the entire community in which he resided. He was a home-loving man greatly devoted to his family and many friends.
