CHALLIS, ARTHUR

Atchison Globe, December 13, 1882

Arthur Challis, son of Geo. T. Challis, died at his home in Atchison at 6 o'clock this morning, aged about 18 years. The young man had been in attendance at the State University in Lawrence this year, and came home on Thanksgiving day, suffering from malaria. In connection with Will Otis and Rolla Krebs, from Atchison, and a boy from the east, the deceased boarded at the residence of Professor Campfield, and it is believed that the cause of his illness and death was the bad water used, for Krebs and Otis have both been at home sick, and all the members of Professor Campfield's family have been ailing for some time. Mr. Challis was a young man of excellent habits, and of unusual promise, and his untimely death is the subject of many sincere regrets. Funeral tomorrow (Thursday) afternoon at 2 p.m.
