Notes After Martha's death, James put his two youngest children in a home. Strange that he felt he was unable to care for them. Also, at the time ofJames' death, he was a resident ofthe Washington County Infirmary. Poor man must have suffered something traumatic in order to end up where he did. --> See article below for some explanation.
James' parents were born in Connecticut and Ohio or both in Virginia.[1920,1900Census]

Burial was made at the Round Bottom Cemeteryin Waterford Township. The funeral of Arbor was conducted Monday morning at 10o'clock at the same place, Dr. J. A. Holmes officiating.

There were no eyewitnesses to the tragedy and the coroner affirmed what the police found in their investigation following the shooting. A note found on Arbor's body indicatedthat trouble was expected, even premeditated by him. The notewas addressed to Chief Homer O. Wolfe of the police department. It was written Friday evening at the county infirmary, more than twelve hours before he followed Newton to the apartment. Text of the note follows: "Marietta, June 16th. Friend Homer:I am going to town tomorrow andI have found out for a fact that Newton is still going to the house. Well, there is something going to happen. It's just too damned raw for me toswallow as every one knows about itand they know that I am wedged outhere and sick and broke. I can't get a gun any place and theykeep bolts on the door when he is there and just the key turned in the lock when he is not. One time he slipped out the back door when she let me in thefront, but I have not been there for a long time. I am going to getin tomorrow. Her folks think she is o.k. Good bye, maybe, J. M. A."
