Lima, New York, was Dr. Cutler's birthplace. He came to Ionia in 1857 and hence was identified with pioneer days of this city and was one of the few remaining early settlers of the community. He was probably the first man to practice professional dentistry in this city.. Dr. Cutler was a man of considerable prominence in county and state affairs. He was long a member of the American Dental association and Michigan Druggist association. Old friends to Dr. Cutler will remember him as a man of fast friends and purposes. He lived near friendships and great loyalty to the late Judge A. B. Morse and was a close friend of the distinguished jurist for years. Mrs. Cutler preceded her husband in death by about 18 months. But two sons survive, John H. Cutler and Zene B. Cutler. The funeral will be held Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock at the residence. Burial will take place in Highland Park cemetery in the family lot.
