''Ausable Forks Record-Post'', April 9, 1942 

We were sorry to learn of the death of Arlo Flagg.  He was born on Wescott Hill in Lewis, a neighbor of the writer's family. An uncle and two brothers were in the Civil War. One brother, "Sammy" did not return. He was one of a large family— a good boy, quiet and ambitious. We are glad some of his boyish dreams came true and he was permitted to do things and see places he wanted to. He became a shrewd business man. While yet a young man he went "out into the woods" as the Adirondack region of the Saranac Lake country and Bartlett's was called. It was a wilderness then. Arlo Flagg was a successful guide. He was associated in our earliest memories. A few years ago he called on us and recalled old times. And so another childhood companion and lifelong friend has passed to the great beyond.
