John Albert ARTER, aged 75, retired blacksmith and a member of the town board of Akron was found dead Tuesday morning in his bed by his wife when she went to his bedroom after he failed to answer her calls. The discovery was made at 5 o'clock and it is presumed that death occurred sometime during the night from a heart attack. Mr. Arter had been in good health and his death was unexpected. An Akron doctor was called to the home by Mrs. Arter. This doctor called Dr. Dean STINSON, county coroner, who after an inquest held that Mr. Arter's death was caused by a heart attack. Mr. Arter was born in Ohio, September 30, 1865. His parents were Philip and Phoebe ARTER. He had lived in Akron since he was a small boy. His wife was Anna SMITH of Akron. Mr. Arter had been a member of the Akron town board for the past six years and was elected on the Citizens Party ticket. Mr. Arter was a member of the Evangelical church at Akron, and had operated a blacksmith shop in Akron for many years. Survivors are the wife, three sons, Earl ARTER, and Harvey ARTER of Akron; Ralph ARTER of South Bend; two daughters, Mrs. Chas. JUDD, Elkhart, and Mrs. John LaRUE of Urbana; four brothers, Sam ARTER, South Bend, (former Fulton county sheriff); Frank ARTER, Talma; Edward ARTER and William ARTER, Akron; two sisters, Mrs. Ben WILTSHIRE, Macy, and Mrs. Leona PERSONETTE, Akron, and three grandchildren. A sister preceded him in death. The funeral arrangements will not be completed until word has been received from the children.
