Arthur died from lung fever (pneumonia).

In Warren Township Feb 12th, of Lung Fever, Arthur, son of Darius H. Bush and Celia Bush, aged 15 years, 9 months, and 18 days. Arthur removed with his parents from Wisconsin to this state about four years since. He had made many friends by his kind and gentle disposition. Always cheerful, kind and obliging, he was a favorite with all who knew him. His illness though short was painful yet he bore his suffering without a murmur. Though so young and with bright hopes for the future, yet, when he found his end was drawing near, he expressed his readiness to cross to the other side and entreated his friends who were near him to prepare to meet him in that home where there is no parting. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. W. B. Brown at the school house. A large number of friends were assembled to pay their last tribute of respect and by the feeling manifested; showed they had lost one whom they indeed regarded as a friend.
