Husband of Blanche V. Dye. His obituary reads: Last week's Leader told about the death of Arthur H. Sargent on Saturday morning, December 28th, as the result of a heart attack. Although many of his friends were not aware that Mr. Sargent had been in ill health at all, he had had some heart trouble for a year and a half or two years in connection with other disturbance that usually accompany deranged heart conditions. However, he was not confined to bed much at all and was in Sargent, December 26th and called at the office of Dr. McDaniel to get some medicine. Friday he had a heart attack but had apparently recovered from it. Then came another Saturday morning early and death came almost instantly. He had spoken but two words and life was gone. The funeral was not held until the next Thursday, January 2nd, in order that two sons and a daughter living in California and a daughter living in Wyoming could be present. The funeral was held at the Methodist church in Walworth, Thursday afternoon commencing at two o'clock. The Spooners had charge of the funeral. The funeral sermon was preached by a former pastor of the Church of God at Walworth, the Rev. Glenn H. Jackson now of Lenora, Kansas, who was assisted by the Rev. E. Irving Hatch of the city.
