“John, b. 15 Oct. 1690, was baptized at Cambridge, Sept. 15, 1700. He married Lydia, daughter of John and Hannah (Winter) Harrington, of Waltham, baptized Mar. 2, 1689-90. Both became members of the church at old Cambridge, June 4, 1710.

“He dwelt in the house, built about 1684, which he purchased of his father, 1717, and which formerly stood on the site of Mr. Cyrus Cutter's residence, Arlington. He was an executor of his father's will, and an heir to his estate; was an husbandman, and probably had a share in the work of the mill with his brothers William and
Samuel. Oct. 25, 1711, he purchased of Moses Rolfe, of Woodbridge, N. J., "yeoman," one fifth of " Cooke's Farm" (130 acres) for "£57 current passable money." May 24, 1712, he bought of John and Elizabeth Harrington one half of "Harry Rolfe's lot" (38 acres) in Cambridge. Apr. 24, 1713, of the same, a portion of Cooke's Farm in Lexington, which he sold to Daniel Monroe in 1714. Nov. 27, 1717, to Thomas Bloggett, Lexington, he sells thirty acres of land in Woljurn.

“April 13, 1737, he was chosen, witli Capt. Ephraim Frost, of Memotomy, as member of a committee of nine persons " for Vigilance Committee of ye Church." This committee, appointed originally by the desire of Rev. Dr. Appleton, the pastor, and perpetuated for many years by his influence, " was a kind of privy council to the min-
ister, though witiiout authority," and appears to have been very serviceable to the interests of religion. It was proposed and recommended in the year 1736, and consisted of a "number of wise, prudent and blameless Christians, chosen among themselves, whose special care it should be, to inspect and observe the manners of professing Christians and such as were under the care and watch of the cliurch." This measure they '''apprehended might be serviceable for reviving religion, and suppressing growing disorders."

“September 9, 1739, John and wife were founders of the church in the Second Precinct of Cambridge, now Arlington; signing and acknowledging the covenant drawn up by Rev. Samuel Cooke, the first pastor. Nov. 17, he w^as unanimously chosen a deacon, and was one of the two incumbents who first held the office in that church.*

“In his latter days his mind became unsound, and his son John Cutter, " miller," and Joseph Adams, " yeoman," were appointed guardians, Feb. 3, 1775. His wife died twenty years previous to his death. Their monumental stones are readily found near the centre of Arlington burial-ground.
