El Paso is proud of its youthful citizens who have served in the armed forces in our wars, and each time they have defended the nation successfully. Could Edward Fitz Patrick speak to them from his grave in Gabetown Cemetery about their service to the government he helped establish long ago in the American Revolution, he might smile and say, "You youngsters have done a good job."

 

REFERENCES AND NOTES

1. We quote an interesting letter on Capt. McCutcheon of Panola:

Treasure Island, Nassau, March 11, 1940.

I am greatly interested in Capt. David R. McCutcheon of Panola, Illinois, and am sorry to say I do not know if he may be a relative, but he is not, to my knowledge, a close one. My father, John Barr McCutcheon was captain of Company K, 15th Indiana Volunteers. He and his father once spelled their names "en" instead of "eon." Wish I could claim a relationship, but I do not know if (father) had any near relative named David.

John T. McCutcheon.

  1. Frank C. Cleary is a relative of the Frank S. Cleary of the 26th Infantry Division above mentioned. See Chapter 17 for an article on Frank C. Cleary.

3. An article on General Duff is included in Chapter 17.
