  • Notes 
    • 1872 Jun 0 - Two accidents of a serious nature have lately occurred in connection with the lumbering operations at Manitoulin Island. James McCutcheon, in the employ of Robert Adam Lyon & Co., was severely crushed whilst engaged in breaking roll-aways by the logs starting unexpectedly. He is recovering quite rapidly as could be expected under the circumstances.
      Another employee named Ferguson had the better part of his foot cut off by the large circular saw. He had changed works? that morning with an acquaintance, & not being familiar with the work of tail sawing, got on the wrong side of the saw. Hence, the accident, which has maimed the poor fellow, probably for life. Both cases are progressing very favourably under the skillful direction of Dr. Simpson, Manitowaning.

      The Late James McCutcheon:
      On Thursday, December 14 at 3 o'clock PM another of the Island pioneers in the person of James McCutcheon passed away at the age of 71 after a prolonged illness. Mr. McCutcheon was born in the township of Adjala in the County of Dufferin in the year 1851. He came to the Manitoulin about 50 years ago to engage in the timber business, with the Robert Adam Lyon & Co. at Michaels Bay. The lure of the land soon led him to engage in the farming industry on an extensive scale in the township of Sandfield.
      The well-known McCutcheon farm consisted of 500 Acres with a splendid house & large modern barns situated on the trunk road between Sandfield Mills & Manitowaning is a credit to our island. He was a natural lover of horses & livestock & more than 18 years ago the writer on his first visit to this farm was by Mr. McCutcheon a splendid herd of pure bred Registered Shorthorn Cattle.
      In his earlier life Mr. McCutcheon devoted considerable time to Municipal affairs & for a number of years served his municipality as reeve with marked efficiency.
      In 1875 he married Annie Hutchinson. This union was blest with 12 children of which 7 sons & 2 daughters are still living: Stewart of Duluth, Michigan; Minard of Spring Bay, Norman of Winnipeg, John of Bruce mines, Vesper, Harold & Clifford at home & Mrs. O. Lifton & Mrs. E. March & both of Vancouver B.C.
      He is also survived by one sister, Mrs. Thomas Allen of Edmonton, & 1 brother, William, of the Niagara district, they being the youngest 2 of a family of 7.
      The funeral service which was held at the family residence was conducted by the Rev. W.W. Anglin, a former pastor & friend of many years to the deceased & his family, who delivered a message of comfort to the bereaved & of tribute to the memory of the deceased. A very large number of sympathetic friends & neighbours were in attendance. The pall bearers were Minard, Naaman; Vesper; Harold; Clifford; sons of the deceased & William Tilson.
      Mr. Hugh Little was in charge as undertaker & funeral director. Internment took place at Hilly Grove Cemetery. Mrs. McCutcheon & family have the sympathy of the entire community.
