Footnotes
For many of the facts relating to the early career of Doctor Cutbush, which appear in this article, the writer is indebted to a memoir prepared in 1843 by Brigadier-General Joseph Gardner Swift, U. S. Army, the first graduate of the Military Academy at West Point, and a friend and contemporary of Doctor Cutbush’s, during the latter’s residence in Geneva, New York. This memoir came to the writer from Miss Alice D. Seward of New York and Geneva, whose generous assistance in providing original material and in making helpful suggestions is gratefully acknowledged.
