1904 found a young lady, Ethel Martindale, from Exeter, Nebraska, teaching the little school. She boarded with the Colby family.

Arthur, fell madly in love with this school teacher, and just to be near her would go to their farm each fall and gather their corn crop. He would work for his board and room while trying to persuade her to become his wife. Getting no results, he finally gave up, but in the next few years she changed her mind and felt that they could be happy together. Arthur, by that time, had the feeling that he could not support her properly so they never married. It was a great tragedy in Arthur’s life, one from which he never recovered.

It seemed to have been difficult for Arthur to make friends easily, and the years must have been very lonely as he lived much of the time by himself. He was a devout Christian and active in church work. He often told of his prayers being answered with what seemed to be little less than a miracle. His love of Christianity was a great source of pleasure to him.

During the summer of 1971 he was injured when a young driver, traveling at great speed, rounded a corner and knocked him to the pavement. Being 93 years of age he never recovered from the shock, and a short time later passed away.

Arthur died in October, 1971 in Oakland, California. His body was taken to Spokane for burial in the family plot.
