• Notes

  Arthur attended public school in La Grange, Texas, then moved to San Antonio where he attended Draughon’s Business College. He then worked for Paul Meerscheidt in the Bexar County Tax Collector’s office for eight years. This began his many years’ experience in city and county back tax matters. Arthur survived a bout of typhoid fever and Bright’s disease when he was in his late twenties. On doctor’s orders he lived and worked as a storekeeper for six months at Medina Dam. He was employed for sixteen years by Maverick Clark Litho Co. where he rose to Vice President and General Manager. He was the head of one of the draft boards in San Antonio during World War II. Before his last serious illness he worked as an agent negotiating for and purchasing properties to clear way for the first construction of the San Antonio Expressway system. He was a deacon of the First Presbyterian Church of San Antonio for twenty-five years. He enjoyed hunting, fishing, and telling stories of his experiences.
