This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

George Washington Cutter was born in 1801 in Quebec, Canada, of a family which had come there from Massachusetts.
Cutter's education was not extensive but for a time he studied law.
Cutter practised in Covington, Kentucky, until the beginning of the Mexican War stirred his imagination with visions of conquest for his country and of military glory for himself.
In 1847 he helped to raise a company of volunteers, which became a part of the 2nd Kentucky Regiment. He was made its captain and joined Taylor’s army on the Rio Grande, where he served with distinction until the close of the war.
He took part in the battle of Buena Vista during which he helped to carry Col. Clay from a position of danger under the enemy’s fire and remained with him until his death. The victory inspired one of his best-known poems, written on the battle-field. At the close of the war he went into politics as a zealous Whig and later became a more or less popular orator in the cause of Know-Nothingism.
He was also at one time an earnest advocate and speaker for the temperance cause. Under Taylor’s administration he received a clerkship in the Treasury Department at Washington which he held until the close of Fillmore’s administration, when he lost it through political changes and left Washington.
A few years before his death Cutter returned to Washington but found no employment. When stricken with paralysis, he was admitted to Providence Hospital on an order from the Commissioner of Public Buildings, and there he died alone.
