Arthur Samuel ArthurOBE (16 March 1877 — 9 September 1930) was an English first-class cricketer and British Army officer.
The son Samuel Arthur,[1] he was born at Newcastle upon Tyne in March 1877. After completing his studies in medicine, Arthur was elected a fellow of the Royal College of Physicians of London in 1894.[2] Arthur was commissioned into the Royal Army Medical Corps (RAMC) as a lieutenant in February 1904.[3] He served in the First World War with the RAMC, holding the rank of captain at the start of the war. He was promoted to major in May 1915,[4] before being temporarily appointed a lieutenant colonel whilst in command of field ambulances.[5] Shortly after the conclusion of the war, Arthur served in British India, where he made two appearances in first-class cricket for the Europeans cricket team against the Indians at Madras in the 1918–19 and 1919–20 Madras Presidency Matches.[6] He scored 26 runs in his two matches, with a highest score of 21.[7] He was made an OBE in September 1921.[8] He retired from active service in July 1922, at which point he was promoted to lieutenant colonel.[9] Arthur died at Blackhall Woods near Carlisle in September 1930; it was noted by his obituary that he had previously acted as medical officer at the Border Regiment depot at Carlisle.[10]
