J. H. Cutter
Death of Col. Cutter. We regret to learn that Col. J. H. Cutter died at
his residence in Hollis, N. H., on Sunday last. Col. Cutter was widely
known throughout the country as the manufacturer of Bourbon Whiskey, in
which business after nearly thirty years of incessant labor he had
amassed a large fortune. He was a man of large business capacities, a
genial companion, and a generous, true, and warm-hearted friend. His
death will cause deep sadness among his numerous friends, and the
deepest among those who knew and appreciated best his many noble
qualities. He has been a sufferer for several years, but within the
last twelve months disease seized upon him with unrelenting grasp, and
he gradually wasted away. The funeral is to be on Wednesday at his late
residence in Hollis.
