Arthur was born in Brighton, Ontario on June 23, 1891. He enlisted in the Canadian Army in October of 1916. As a result of being hit by a baseball, Arthur suffered from retinal hemorrhaging on December 2, 1916 and again in 1917. Wearing smoked glasses helped protect his eyes to some degree. Arthur was invalided to Canada in October of 1917; it was suspected that he had tuberculosis. In 1919, he filed on SE 5-78-3-W6 and SW 4-78-3-W6. Arthur died on May 16, 1967 and was buried in Victory Memorial Park in Surrey, British Columbia.
