Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox officeholder Aretas Brooks Fleming (October 15, 1839Шаблон:Spaced ndashOctober 13, 1923) was the 8th governor of West Virginia. In 1865, he married Carrie Watson.[1] When he ran as the Democratic nominee in the election of 1888, the election was disputed by the Legislature. In 1890, the Legislature agreed that Fleming had defeated Nathan Goff, Jr. Both Fleming and Goff were sworn in as governor on March 4, 1889.[2]

The Supreme Court of Appeals of West Virginia ruled that outgoing governor Emmanuel Willis Wilson would remain governor; State Senate President Robert S. Carr had claimed authority until the Court reached its decision. In 1890, the Legislature agreed that Fleming had defeated Nathan Goff, Jr. As a result, Fleming did not assume the office until February 6, 1890. He left office in 1893 and continued to practice law, and pursue business interests, specifically in the coal industry.[3] Fleming, along with his brother-in-law Clarence W. Watson, formed many coal companies, and sought to remove their competitors.[3]

Fleming died on October 13, 1923, in Fairmont, West Virginia.[3] He is interred at Woodlawn Cemetery. A large obelisk marks his grave.[4]
