Obituary: Arthur G. Hatch - Big Timber Pioneer - November 11, 1915
The funeral of Attorney Arthur G. Hatch, whose death was announced in the last issue of The Pioneer was held in this city Monday, after the arrival of O.M. Hatch of LeGrande, Ore., a brother, and Miss Edith Merrilees of Palo Alto, Cal., a niece. The service was in charge of the Knights of Pythias Lodge, of which deceased was a charter member, having joined at the organization in 1891.

Shortly before 2 p.m., the Knights marched to the residence of deceased on McLeod Street, accompanying the remains to St. Mark's Episcopal Church, where a short service was held by Rev. C.P. Burnett, a choir consisting of Mesdames J.E. Roecher and Dorman Kellogg and Rev. John C. Blackman and John E. Rees rendering several selections. The funeral procession then moved to Mountain View, where the Knights service was conducted.

The service was attended by a large throng of friends and sympathizers, many from the country and Livingston attending, and the business houses and city and county offices were closed during the funeral hour as a mark of respect. The floral offerings were many, outside friends contributing to the many offerings. The pallbearers were: Judge J.E. Barbour, H.O. Kellogg, George A. Loasby, J.W. Bailey, A. Whitney, H.C. Pound.

Arthur G. Hatch was born in Pike County, Ill., October 11, 1856. He attended public schools in that county, then graduated from the state university at Columbia, MO. His first venture was in the printing business, but after learning the trade he abandoned it and took up law, reading in the office of C.C. Boland at Rolla, Mo., and in 1878 was admitted to practice. In 1880 he located at White Sulphur Springs, Meagher County, and in 1887 came to Big Timber and since made this his home. He enjoyed a lucrative practice, although handicapped by defective hearing and served many years as city attorney, also one term as county attorney.

He leaves three brothers; George M. Hatch of Lethbridge, Can., O.M. Hatch of LeGrande, Ore., and Benton Hatch of San Francisco.
