In my 5gr-grandfather's estate inventory dated Aug 10, 1778, in Goochland
Co., are listed these weaponry:
a Gun Powder horn Cutfourh Box & Sword          3 pounds
1 powder flask Old Gun barrel & Lock                  5 shillings

Evidently, he had no working gun.  Can someone tell me what the Cutfourh Box &
 Sword are (these were hard to read, and I may have transcribed wrong)

Thanks,
Jim Atkisson
