DANIEL CUTTER settled on lot 9, range 3, near the homestead of his father. To this from time to time he made large and valuable additions, till he became the proprietor of a large landed estate. He was a practical farmer, having learned the requisites of good farming by experience on the homestead in early life. He was a large wool-grower and dealer in stock.

When the Melville academy was incorporated, he aided in the enterprise, and became one of its pro- prietors, and assisted in the erection of the house.
