Don't see anything about his death, but is this petty criminal your Arthur? Marine store dealer, as in your other thread. I don't have a sub to see whole articles:


Nottingham Evening Post

Tuesday 14 May 1907 , Nottingham Evening Post , Nottinghamshire, England



This one could be his son:

Nottingham Evening Post
ILKESTON BUS CRASH
“... summoned for stealing bicycle, valued at 305., the property of William Purdy, pitboy, oi Lacey Field-road, Langloy, and Arthur Leatherland, ironworkor, of 54, South ... ”

Thursday 18 August 1932 , Nottingham Evening Post , Nottinghamshire, England

Online newspapers for Nottingham only go up to about 1950. The Local Studies Library should be able to look it up for you but will probably charge
