Funeral by Rev. Moses Quimby
From the Analectra May 15, 1884
Capt. Arthur Locke died May 10, 1884, 59 years, 6 months, 25 days. G.A.R. was in charge and the sermon was given by Elder M.A. Quimby of New Durham,
From the Valley Times February 17, 1870
Capt. Arthur Locke has been cutting a small lot of timber this winter, including several old growth pines; one of which made after it was sawed, 28,000 feet of lumber.
Large lumbering operations are going on in the vicinity of Pleasant Pond.
From the History of the NH 11th Regiment: He was a farmer by occupation, teaching school during the winter. He was one of the selectmen of the town, and filled other positions of trust. His biographer says of him, -
When the old flag was fired upon at Sumter, his patriotism was aroused, and when men were asked to volunteer by the beloved Lincoln, he said, 'Shall I remain at home in such a time of need? No ! While the blood of my ancestors courses through my veins, I feel it my duty to go, and I must go.' He told me that he was in sixteen battles, and he had no fear of death. He was severely wounded, and came to his home for a short time, but his courage and patriotism did not abate. When the war was over, he came home and resumed his former occupation, and as a trader in a country store for awhile, for his system had received so many shicks that he was not the strong man of other years. He had rheumatism very severely, which culminated in paralysis. For twelve more years he was lame, going upon crutches, and for three years before he died could not dress or feed himself. During all these long years of suffering he loved to recount his battle scenes, and when his comarades called to see him, his vigor and patriotism seemed renewed. He was patient through it all, and never regretted that he gave his life for his country."
This is indeed a loving tribute, such as only a sister could give, and truthful, as every member of the Eleventh regiment knows, to every one of whom he endeared himself by his genial disposition, his manly bearing, and his unflinching courage. At the first reunion of the regiment after the war, held at Manchester, the entire regiment joined in resolutions tendering the brave man their deepest sympathy and continued respect.
