Note | Arthur narrowly escaped death when he was knocked off an electric?pole at Liberty and Lilie streets in Elgin on Sunday morning in August?of 1936. He was employed as a lineman by the Western United Gas and?Electric company, and was repairing a power line. He was up on the?pole when the bolt struck near the intersection and follwed the line?to the pole. ??Arthur was thrown 35 feet to the ground and was rendered unconscious?by the lightning strike. He landed between other linemen on the ground?who were not injured. He was taken to Sherman hospital where he soon?regained consciousness. ??An examination revealed a fractured shoulder, spinal injury and numerous?bruises. His condition was reported to be improving. (Taken from?the Barrington Courier 8/27/36)??He died in a rest home in Phoenix, AZ. He had been in poor health?since suffering severe injuries from the lightning strike. He had?gone to the southwest 2 week before hoping that the warmer climate?would benefit his health. ??Services were at the Wolff funeral home in Elgin. The Rev Alexander?Milmine of the Egin Congreational church officiated with the burial?in the Evergreen cemetery in Barrington. |
