From Manx Quarterly #18, 1917;
"The death occurred on April 2nd, at 49 King's-road, Willesden Green, London, N., of Mr David Pollock Cuthbertson, for many years a respected citizen of Douglas. He and Mrs Cuthbertson (who survives him) came from Edinburgh to Douglas some 40 years ago. He was a prominent member of St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church, and a member of the Central Relief Committee which preceeded the Board of Guardians. and took a great interest in Temperance and Sons of Temperance work. For about ten years he has lived with his son-in-law (Mr Corlett) in London. His eldest son is Mr A. B. Cuthbertson, Deputy Town Clerk of Douglas. In his early manhood the late Mr Cuthbertson served his country as a soldier in a Scottish regiment. He fought gallantly through the Crimean War in this capacity, and experienced the hard-ships which the mis-managed campaign entailed on the British forces. Mr Cuthbertson was among the first half-dozen soldiers to enter Sebastopol on the fall of that important fortress-town."
