Charles Mertz "C. M." Arbuthnot was an early physician, pharmacist and founder of the Arbuthnot Drug Company in Republic County, Kansas, one of the first to establish a practice in the county.
He was born in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania in 1852 and his family came to Kansas in 1871 by way of Iowa.[1]
While he was young, Arbuthnot remained at home helping his father on the family farm while also teaching in the district schools until 1875.[2] He then attended Leavenworth Normal School,[1] then a principal at public school in Peabody, Kansas for two years.[3]
While working through his education and teaching, Arbuthnot had been studying medical books. In 1878 he went to Philadelphia and took a medical course at Jefferson Medical College. After graduating in 1881 he returned to Republic County and began practicing medicine in Belleville.[1]
