Source is AAF record A-372 in file. Transcript of story of his death which
was published in a Washington C.H., OH, newspaper in January, 1929 in file.
Dates of birth and death may not be accurate. He was survived by an unnamed son
and a divorced wife who live in Denver. He was 84 and died of influenza. He
was a hermit doctor who relied on the free will offering of his patients. He
was graduated from the Ohio Medical College at Cincinnati, OH in 1883, and
practiced at Breckenridge, CO, before going to Craig, CO, where he had a ranch.

According to records of Wilma Beard Harper in Frances Arbogast files, his
wife, Lily, and a son, Clarence were living in Denver in 1930. He died in a
Denver Hospital, but buried at Craig, CO. Other spouse, children, and
descendants as recorded.

A newspaper article of 17 May 1962, Rocky Mountain News, Denver, 1, CO, by Ed
C. Johnson, 3 term Governor of CO, and U.S. Senator, from files of Frances
Arbogast, deceased, Indianapolis, tells of Johnson's long association with Dr.
B. A. Arbogast, a nearby homesteader, friend, rancher, and Medical Doctor to
all in the area around Juniper Canyon on the north bank of Bear River, near
Craig, Moffat County, CO, formerly Routt Co. He met Dr. Arbogast in June,
1910, when he staked out a homestead in the area, the first person he met. Dr.
Arbogast refused to talk of his past, lived as a hermit because he wanted only
"hills that cannot be plowed and the rip-snorting thunder of an angry river."
Mr. Johnson tells of their setting up schools, teaching until teachers could be
found, building roads, etc. He was with Dr. Arbogast at Hayden Hospital when
he died. "He clutched my sleeve and hung on. He spoke one word at a time amid
long pauses - "I am ripe!" 'I am falling off the tree!" "God's plan is
right." He smiled and that was it." Copy in file.
