Obituary appeared Feb 8, 1894 - Northern Nebraska Journal
Died, at his home near Ponca, on January 30th, 1894, Judge Edward Arnold, in the 72nd year of his age.
Judge Arnold was one of the best known and most esteemed citizens of the country. He was born May 1, 1822, at Cork, Ireland Rathcormac, County Cork, Ireland. When quite young he came to this country, locating in Holyoke, Massachusetts. He was married at Woonsocket, Rhode Island, on May 11, 1844, to Mary O'Hara, who now survives him. In 1857 he and his family came west, arriving at Sioux City, Iowa, on the steamboat, Essy Wilgus Asa Wilgus, May 8, 1857. From Sioux City, which was then a town of tents and log cabins and perhaps a hundred people, he came to Dixon County and has resided her ever since. Hence, as will be seen, he was one of the earliest settlers of this county. When he came, the white inhabitants were few and scattering and the land was mostly unbroken and uncultivated. Where are now dense settlements and cultivated farms was then the home of the Indians and buffaloes. Where we now see large town, extensive business enterprises, elegant residences, railroads, telegraphs and a multitude of other evidences of progressive and educated people, then the country was yet wild, and a white man was almost as much of a rarity as the Indian is now. Judge Arnold leaves a wife and two sons and two daughters, viz., Wm. Arnold who lives at Sioux City, John E. who is in Colorado, and Mrs. Fenton of Elk Point and Mrs. Hewitt of Missouri.
His funeral took place on Thursday of last week at the Southcreek Catholic church, Rev. Father Geary officiating, as was attended by a large concourse of sorrowing friends.
