Arthur Melmoth Walters (26 January 1865 – 2 May 1941) was an English amateur footballer who played as a defender for the Old Carthusians and the Corinthians in the late nineteenth century as well as making nine appearances for England.
Amongst the more significant matches were a 6–0 defeat of the FA Cup holders, Blackburn Rovers, in December 1885 and a 7–0 victory over Notts County in March 1886, when fellow Old Carthusian William Cobbold scored four goals.
Arthur played in the soccer match (without Percy) which Corinthian won 6–0, with Tinsley Lindley scoring a hat-trick.
Finally, the two clubs met a few weeks later in a cricket match in which Percy played alongside several other prominent Corinthians, including Fry, Lindley and Charles Wreford-Brown.
Arthur's final Corinthian matches came when he made a brief come-back at the end of the 1892–93 season with appearances against Bournemouth and Queen's Park.
[13] Arthur made a total of nine appearances for England, with the final match being against Scotland in the 1890 British Home Championship.
Walters spent some time as a volunteer in the army, and in August 1886, he was promoted to the rank of lieutenant in the 3rd Surrey Rifles.
[1] He became a director of the London Guarantee and Accident Co., and of the Phoenix Assurance Co.[1] He died at his home at Minnickwood, Holmwood, Surrey on 2 May 1941 aged 76.
