Arthur Clifford Ewen was killed in an accident while working in Donnybrook on 12 June 1937. A fall from a log-hauling truck gave Mr Ewen injuries from which he died five hours later in Bunbury. He had been employed by Bunning Bros Ltd.
Buried at Kelmscott Public Cemetery (Third Road) on 15 June 1937, Mr Ewen was the final burial at the Cemetery and is the sole remaining burial at the site, marked by a native bush reserve at the entrance to John Dunn oval, giving Mr Ewen a notably unique place in Kelmscott's history.
Mr Ewen had been interred in the Undemoninational section (also known as Salvation Army section) of the Cemetery, with the ceremony conducted by Major Harry Hunter. 19 years later on 11 February 1956, as a result of consolidation of the Cemetery site, Mr Ewen's remains was re-interred in a Congregational section by Reverend Hobby.
In later years when the area zoning was changed and the site became a recreation reserve, Mr Ewen's remains stayed on site and were not relocated as the other nine burials had been.
