He had been in the butter and egg business for 25 years. Blanche Kratz, Mr. Cutler’s secretary, told police she believed he had lost money in the stock slump. Mr. Cutler was born in Ionia, Mich., and before coming to New York 30 years ago was a high school principal at Marshall. He is survived by his widow and two sons, Harold and George, Jr. Mr. Cutler was widely known in Ionia county. For years, prior to his moving east, he was in the creamery business here. At one time he was superintendent of the Methodist Episcopal Sunday school. He also is survived by a sister, Mrs. Carrie Defendorf, and a brother-in-law, Postmaster Henry F. Voelker, of this city, and two brothers, Henry, of Minneapolis, and Fred J. of New York City.
