Arthur was a successful real estate agent in the Lawrence, MA area, along with his father. He died of tuberculosis at Pembroke Sanitorium in Pembroke, NH. His mother had died of the same disease in 1903.
Pembroke Sanitoriums was constructed in the early 1900's, like others of its kind at the time, to provide "rest, sunshine and fresh air", which was thought at the time, to be crucial to those suffering from "consumption", as tuberculosis had been called for some time. Residents paid $15 per week to stay at the facility, often for extended periods.
Arthur never married. At the time of his death he was engaged to Miss Emma Pedler, and had recently finished building a new house for them in Salem, NH. Upon his death he was interred at Walnut Grove Cemetery in the Pedler family lot. When Emma died in 1955 she was buried beside him. Emma never married.
