Information from death certificate UT.

Graduate Knox College, B.S., 1897; D.D.S, Chicago College of Dental Surgery, 1900; a dentist in Salt Lake City UT and President and Manager of Waterworks Equipment Company, and President, Arnold Machinery Company, Salt Lake City; 1929 opened the doors of Stannard-Arnold Machinery, a company (Arnold Machinery) that is still in operation and much larger today (2005). They resided at 1874 Michigan Ave., Salt Lake City UT. Louis went by automobile from Salt Lake City with a party of men to look at some land out some distance, and noticed an automobile ahead of them on the mountain side that stuck in the snow. Naturally without thought of any serious consequences the Arnold machine slowed up and it was the purpose of those aboard to make inquiry and if necessary to give assistance. As the Arnold machine came to a stop, several men about the other machine opened fire on them and did not cease their volleys until twelve shots had been fired; the chauffeur of the Arnold auto was killed but the rest of the party bent low and managed to keep out of the range of the bullets. The would-be robbers took off on foot leaving their auto behind. The Arnold party turned back and notified the authorities who later captured the robbers.
