PROP: 1901: He and his brother owned a 10-room hotel at 117-121 St Laurent Street
Remi -- similar to his father before him -- experienced much tragedy inhis married life. Five children were born to him and Exilda, but at least four died before age 7. Then Remi's young bride died at age 33. Perhaps this explains why Remi himselflived only until age 47.
In 1899, Remi owned a hotel known as Turf House at 629 St-Lawrence St in Montreal, QC, according to Morrey's Classified Business Directory, 1899-1900.

Granby Leader (QC) -- 08 Mar 1900
Henry Roman died on Sunday from the effects of a blow received from oneArbour, a neighbor, in Montreal. Arbour declares that Roman first struck him and that the fatal knock was given in self-defence.
From Denis ARBOUR via email on 21 May 2011: I think I found who he is. His name is Rémi ARBOUR, probably a son of Norbert ARBOUR and ÉlisabethPOULIN. I found the story in "La Patrie". According tothe newpaper, Harry ROMAN and Rémi ARBOURgotinto a de dareré recsaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»fight because workers removing snow from the roof of Rémi's house let some of it fall on Harry's property. Harry hit Rémi several times on the shoulders and on the head until the shovel broke. Rémi, badly wounded, picked up whatwas left of the shovde dareré recsaole?ees18 Rivitab»«tab»el and hit his opponent in self defense. Harry fell on the sidewalk and lost conciousness. Hedied the next day. Apparently Henri was so badly hurt he was expected to die inthe next few days. It's a little hard to read but I'll try to make a translation later.

FUTILE QUARREL Which results in a death of a citizen of this city and puts another's life in jeopardy
REGRETTABLE CONFLICT BETWEEN TWO NEIGHBORS The verdict of the coroner is "Justifiable Homicide"
We announced Saturday that Mr. Harry Roman, a well-known merchant of St-Laurent Street, had been transported to the General Hospital followingwounds he had received during the course of a brawl. However, we must announce today that Mr. Roman succumbed to his injuries, which gives tothis business a regrettable importance. On the other side, an adversary of Mr. Roman, Mr. Remi Arbour, the well-known owner of the "Turf House" on the corner of Roy and St-Laurent Street, is in an extremely precarious state as a consequence of the wounds he received. His condition is such as one despairs to save it, and the Abbe [Troie], priest of Notre-Dame, was destined for his bedside this morning to give him Last Rites. As we already mentioned, Mr. Roman was occupied removing the snow from his pavement, Friday morning, when the quarrel occurred. Mr. Arbour was a little further along, observing workmen who worked on the roof ofhis house. Part of snow that they removed fell on the property beside Mr. Roman, who protested and chastized Mr. Arbour. He counteracted and from words came the blows and from there the consequences which alreadybrought the death of Mr. Roman and which put Mr. Arbour in an unknown state. Here are the details of this unhappy business, details which we collected through the coroner's inquest which took place this morning, at the General Hospital. The jury that was sworn in, was made up as follows: Misters Jos. Nantel, 37 Amherst; Geo. [Margoli..], 14 Crescent; Gust. Fishchel, 28 Crescent; Joseph Picard, 50 Hôtel de Ville; Jos. C. Bourke, 894 Ste-Catherine; Hugh Heron, [204] Cadieux; Wallace Bell, [810] St-Laurent; John Thomson, 201 Cherrier; Jos. A. Arcand, 150 Sanguinet; Albert Prévost, 214 St-Hubert;vde dareré recsaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»Lucien Gagnon, 129 St-Laurent; Geo. [Ste...], 522 1/2 Craig;Art. Bushnel, 57 Mayor; Sydney Levine, 16A Université; Geo. Kennedy, 808 St-Laurent. Mr. Suryeyer, assisted by M. D. MacMaster, represented the family of Mr. Arbour. Mr. J. Crankshaw appea;vde dareré recsaole?ees18 Rivitab»«tab»red for the Roman family. The first witness was Dr. Wyatt Johnston who says that he made the autopsy and that he noted two fractures behind the head close to the left ear. The cranium was fragile. In answer to Mr. MacMaster, the witness says that the victim appeared 53-years old. He did not visit the place where the accident occurred. He knows however that pavement is often dangerous. He cannot say, after an examination of the wounds, how the accident occurred. The victim did not have external marks. Generally a blow with a stick produces a cut. The McLaughlin detective then produced the handle of a broken shovel given to himby Miss Sourkes, 633 rue St-Laurent. Heis the one who was charged withacquiring details of the brawl. Invitedto examine the handle of shovel, Dr. Johnston answered that the wounds could have been caused by this instrument, but in his opinion, it was more probable that they werecaused by a fall. The instrument is very light and would have needed a violentblow. In answerto series of questions from Mr. Macmaster, the doctorsaid that he would not know for sure without making an experiment. He told Mr. Crankshaw thata blowcombinedwith the fall could have caused thewounds. Mr. Samuel Roman, brotherof the late man, was then sworn in. He added that he does not know anything personally about the accident. He learned about it Friday morning and he returned to the hospital to seethe victim and did not have an enough complete knowledge to reportthe details of the regrettable business. His brother was the owner of a store close to the establishment of Mr. Arbour. The young girl Pearle Sourkes wasthenext witness. She lives at539 rue St-Laurent. She knew thevictim and it is she who produced the handle of shovel and gave it to the detective. She was employed at Mr. Roman's and at the request of the detective gave him the instrument.Atthe time of the accident,she was inside the store and Mr. Roman was occupied removing snow on the outside. She heard an argument outside, but she could distinguish what only one of them said. A few minutes later, she looked and saw Mr. Arbourin asnowdrift. She could notexactly say theposition of the two men. Aftera few moments, she saw Mr. Roman turning to take issue with a witness.At this time, Mr. Arbour advanced with the handle of shovel and gave ablow to his adversarywho then collapsed. She went to him to help him get up.Hewas trembling but said that it would be nothing and that hewould recover promptly. There were several people there whom she cannot name. She does not know if Mr. Arbour heldthe shovelin his hand before the last incident. When sheleft, she thoughtshe heard Mr. Roman say: "You heard what this man hassaid."After being questioned, Mr. Roman sat down and said that he felt better. Some time afterwards, he was vomiting, and, on his order, she went to telephone his brother. Shereturned andthentelephoned a second time. The brother of the victim arrivedafter these requests. An ambulance was called a little later and the casualtywas transported to theGeneralHospital. She had not see Mr. Arbour since then. In answer toMr. MacMaster, the witness said that the victim complained about from Mr. Arbour. When he was struck, the victim wore a soft hat. He collapsed and his head did not touch the ground. She was notthere when Mr. Arbour was struck, and she does not know anything of what occurred.Mr. Albert E. Taylor said that knew the two men alittle, and he observed the brawl. He saw that one man removed snow off the roofat Mr. Arbour's.Mr. Roman removed snow on his pavement. Part of the snow fell on the propertyof Mr. Roman. It seems thatthere was a quarrel between the two men. Hesaw Mr. Roman strike Mr. Arbour twice with his shovel. The second blow was more violent than the first, because the shovel had broken. He believes that he struck a third blow, and the two men began wrestling on the ground. Mr. Roman tried tostill strike Mr. Arbour, then he lost his instrument. The two men got up and Mr.Arbour entered his own establishment. He saw nothing more, and he did not give anyimportance to the incident that he believedfutile.The witness was onthe other side of the street, and he understood nothing of what was said. The first blow reachedMr.Arbour on his shoulder. The second blow reached his head and this is when the shovel broke. It is certain that a third blow wasdelivered, but he cannot say if Mr. Arbour washit. The fourth time that the handle was raised, it was Mr. Arbourwho was the attacker. Mr. Arbour had no instrument in his hand at the time when the battle started. JosephBernard, 263 Cadieux,wasthenext witness. He saw all the details ofthe brawl. At the beginning, a young girl tried to pass,and Mr. Arbourtook her by the arm and told her to pass in the street. Mr. Roman told the young girl to pass straight,adding that the hotel owners encroached toomuch and seemed masters of the city.Mr. Arbour came towards him and it was at this moment that Mr. Roman struck five or six times. On the sixth blow, Mr. Roman fell and his head struck the corner of his door. Mr.Arbour raised and dropped on his headthe stick which he seized.He thenentered his own establishment.Dr. J.W. Vipond, 905 rue Dorchester, has treated Mr. Arbour for three months. He was too weak to strike a serious blow. He did not believethatArbourcould have struck aserious blow withthe stick that wasproduced.Several other witnesseswere interviewed who corroborated all that precedes. After hearing the testimony, the jury returned a verdict of "justifiable homicide." Mr.Arbouris ina mostprecarious state and his death is awaitedfrom one moment tothenext.

SAD CONFLICT BETWEEN TWO NEIGHBOORS
The coroner's verdict was "excusable homicide"
-----------------
We announced on Saturday that Mr. Harry Roman, a well-known merchant ofSt. Laurent Street, was transported to the General Hospital as a result of injuries he received during a fight. Now, we announce today that Mr. Roman died of his injuries, whichgives to this matter a sad importance. On the other hand Mr. Roman's opponent, Mr. Rémi Arbour, the ownerof the well known "Turf House" on the corner of Roy and St. Laurent Streets, is in a very precarious state because of the injuries that he h;vde dareré recsaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»as received. His condition is such that one despairs of saving, and the Abbe [Troy], pastor of Notre-Dame, was summoned to his bedside this morning, to administer the last rites. As we have already said, Mr.Roman was busy removing the snow fromhis sidewalk Friday morning, when the quarrel broke out.Mr. Arbour wasa bit further, observing the workers who worked on the roof of his house. Part of the snow that was being removed was falling on Mr. Roman's property, whoprotested and shouted at Mr. Arbour. The latter retaliatedand from words, they came to blows and then the consequences that havealready caused the death of Mr. Roman and put Mr. Arbour in the state we know. Here are the detailsof this sadaffair, details that we gathered at the coroner's inquest that was held this morning at the General Hospital. The jury members that were sworn were as follows: MM. Jos. Nantel, 37 AmherstGeo. [Margolis ..], 14 Crescent; Gust. Fishchel, 28 Crescent,Joseph Picard, 50 City Hall, Jos. C.

MacMaster, represented the family of Mr. Arbour. Mr. J.Crankshawappeared for the Roman family. The first witness was Dr. Wyatt Johnstonwho said he did the autopsy and found two fractures in the back ofthe head near his left ear. The skull was fragile. In response to Mr. McMaster, the witness said thatthe deceasedappeared53 of age. He has not visited the place where the accidenthappened. He knows, however, that the sidewalks are often dangerous. He can't tell after examining the injuries how the accident happened. There was no external wound. Usually, ablowwith a stick leaves a cut. Detective McLaughlin then produces thehandle of a broken shovel that given to him by Miss Sourkes, 633 rueSt-Laurent. He was appointed to inquire about the details of the fight. Asked to inspect the shovelhandle,Dr.Johnston said that the injuriescould have been caused by this instrument, but, in his opinion, they are more likely to havebeen caused by a fall. The instrument is very light and it would have taken a very violent blow. Answering aa series of questions from Mr Macmaster, the doctor said he could not tell withoutmaking an experiment. He tells Mr. Crankshaw that a shot combined with the fall could have caused the injuries. Samuel Roman, brother of the deceased, was then sworn. He adds that hepersonally knows nothingof the accident. He heard the news on Friday morning and went to the hospital to see the wounded who didn't have enough conciousness to narrate the full details of the unfortunate affair. His brotherowned a store adjacent to the establishment of Mr. Arbour. The young girl Pearle Sourkes,isthe next witness. She lives at No. 539 St-Laurent Street. She knew the deceased, and she is the one who gave the detective the shovel handle that waspreviously shown. She was employed at Mr. Roman's and it is at the request of the detective that shegave the instrument. At the time of the accident, she was inside the store and Mr. Roman was busy removing the snow outside. She hearda fight outside, but she could notdistinguish what wassaid. A few minutes later she came out and she saw Mr. Arbour ina snowbank. She cannot say what was exactly the position of the twomen. After a few moments, she saw Mr. Roman turning to someone like for him to witness. At that time, Mr. Arbour moveforward with the shovelhandle and hit his opponent whocollapsed. She went to him and helped him get up. He was trembling, but he said that it would be nothing and that he would recover quickly. Several people that she couldnotname werethere.She does not know if Mr. Arbour held the shovel inhis handbefore the last incident. When she came out, she heard Mr. Roman say to someone: "You heard what that man said."After going in, Mr. Roman sat down and said he felt better. Some time later he started vomiting, and, on his order, she went to call hisbrother. She came back and returned to phone a second time. The brother of the deceased arrived at that time.Theambulance was called a little bit later, and the woundedman was transported to theGeneral Hospital. She has not seen Mr. Arbour since. Answering Mr. McMaster, the witness said that the deceased complained about the insults from Mr. Arbour.When he was struck, the deceased was wearinga soft hat. He collapsedand his head did not touchtheground. She was not there when Mr.Arbour was struck, and she knows nothing of what happened. Albert E. Taylor says he knew both mena little,and he witnessed the fight. He saw that the snow was being removed fromthe roof of Mr. Arbour'shouse. Mr.Roman was shoveling the snow fromhis sidewalk. Part of snow fell on the property of Mr. Roman. It seems there was a quarrel betweentwo men. He sawMr. Roman hit Mr. Arbour twice with his shovel.
