He was the son of Mrs Mary Ann Green. Arthur was an engineer by trade, and after enlistment embarked for France on the 9th September 1915. On the 26th of the same month he was badly wounded, and though bandaged by Lieutenant Van Someren, he had to be left when the British retired. Nothing further was heard of him, and it was assumed that he must have died then, or as a prisoner.
