T. I. ARNOLD 
Mr. T. I. Arnold was born near Byron, 
Ga., June 16th, i860. At the age of 
twenty-four he came to Florida and en¬ 
gaged in orange culture near Anthony, 
Marion county. After the big freeze, be¬ 
cause of which he lost his grove, he be¬ 
came manager of a phosphate mine 
owned and operated by Mr. McDowell, in 
whose employ he remained for some 
years. Later he again took up orange cul¬ 
ture in the employ of H. B. Stevens, at 
Citra, Fla., where some of the finest or¬ 
anges in the State are grown. 
Still in the employ of Mr. Stevens, 
some years later he moved to Orlando, 
where he entered the pineapple industry, 
in which he spent eight or ten years, dur¬ 
ing the last four or five years being asso¬ 
ciated with J. C. Talley in the business. 
Owing to the difficulty of competing with 
the Cuban growers of pineapples, also 
those of the east coast of Florida, the 
work at Orlando had to be abandoned, be¬ 
cause the price received for fruit was not 
sufficient to compensate for trouble and 
expense of raising the fruit under cover. 
During the first year of his stay in Or¬ 
lando, in January, 1896, he was married 
to Miss Pauline Pugh, a teacher in the 
Orlando High School, whom he had 
known ever since coming to the State. 
In 1905 Mr. and Mrs. Arnold removed 
to Jacksonville, where they bought a 
home, and where Mrs. Arnold taught for 
years in the Duval High School. 
During the remainder of his life he 
was engaged in the lumber business at 
Oak, being manager and part owner of 
the Arlo Box Company.
