COL. JAMES M. ARNOLD ANSWERS DEATH SUMMONS
Colonel James Madison Arnold, life member of the Chamber of Commerce, Cincinnati, Veteran of the Confederate Army, and native of Bourbon county died of apoplexy at noon on Wednesday, at his residence, 525 Garrard Avenue in Covington. He was stricken at 6 o'clock when in a bathroom, where he was found by a member of his family.
Colonel Arnold was widely known throughout Kentucky. He was born in Paris, Kentucky in 1840. He was one of General Kirby Smith's army, which frightened residents of Covington in 1862 when orders were received to take Cincinnati. He was then First Lieutenant of E Company, First Arkansas Infantry.
He was educated in Covington and Cincinnati. He was in Arkansas when that State seceded, and followed his State in the war. First as a Private, he progressed to a Captaincy. His first engagement was at Shiloh, and joining Smith, took part in the battle at Perryville, Kentucky, which was lost to them. He was wounded seven times and was captured in the battle at Arkansas Pas in 1865. Only a few days ago, when serving on a jury in the Federal Court, he spoke of the present conditions, saying "The ex-Confederate soldier is the most loyal American."
Colonel Arnold was also Captain of A Company, Carlton's Cavalry, Cleburn's Brigade, and at the time of his demise, a Brigadier General of United Confederate Veterans on General Bennet Young's staff. Recently he was appointed by Governor A. O. Stanley, Trustee of the Confederate Home at Pewee Valley, Kentucky.
For many years he was President of the Newport Board of Education, one of the schools being named in his honor.
For a score of years he was an official of the Cincinnati Southern Railroad Company until he was retired by that company. Colonel Arnold was an excellent horseman, was conspicuous in all pageants in Covington upon his black charger with snow-white saddle, bridle and martingales, and often made Decoration Day addresses at the graves of Confederate soldiers in Kentucky.
Colonel Arnold was a brother of Colonel Brent Arnold, Superintendent of Cincinnati Terminals of the L & N, and General Freight Agent of Kentucky division of the same road. He is survived by his widow, Eleanor Hart Talbott Arnold, Miss Lucy Brent, Sophie Hart, G.T., E.C. and J. M. A. Arnold.
The body of Col. Arnold will arrive on the 9:45 L&N train from Covington this morning, accompanied by a deputation from the Cincinnati Chamber of Commerce and other organizations. It will be taken directly to St. Peter's Episcopal church, where services will be conducted by Rev. Geo. H. Harris.
The pall-bearers will be : J. Harry Holt, Capt. James R. Rogers, Amos Turney, Sr., D.C. Parrish, Dr. C.G. Daugherty, James McDonald, Charles Meng and Gano Hildreth. The burial will follow on the family lot in the Paris Cemetery.
