CUTTER, Ephraim. (Tompkins County, NY--Dubuque, IA, May 14, 1886). Cutter came to Dubuque in 1851 and as a cabinet maker found work with H. H. Herancourt. He later worked for Corey & Pickerill, photographers, and learned the business.
Cutter went into the photography business with Samuel ROOT. They worked together about ten years before Cutter opened his own studio. William H. MORHISER, another local photographer, investigated the room of the deceased and his place of business in the same building and declared them unhealthy. The developing room had no ventilation, a cause of sudden death for several other photographers within the last five years. The coroner agreed with the statement.
