Ionia Standard, 24 Jan 1890

James H. Arnold died on Monday, at the age of 63 years, at the Arnold 
homestead, south Ionia.  He had been in poor health, suffering several 
paralytic strokes during the two years last past.

He was born in Herkimer county, New York, in 1826, and came to Ionia in 1833, 
with his father Oliver Arnold, who was among the earliest settlers in this 
county.  At an early age he learned the trade of edge tool maker, and he and 
his brother Westley, deceased, for many years enjoyed the distinction of being 
among the best workers in steel in this country.  He was a well informed man, a 
faithful member of the Baptist society.

The funeral was attended on Wednesday, and interment was in the Balcom 
cemetery.  Revs. Alfred Cornell and J. M. Coe conducted ?eeling services.
