BIOGRAPHICAL:
The OREGON STATE DIRECTORY of 1881 (pg. 638): WATER PROOF OIL BLACKING. Salem means to bear off the palm for valuable inventions. Mr. Henry Dippell, who has spent a long life in Boot and Shoe Making, has given years of study to the qualities and structure of leather, and after many experiments, he has perfected a composition for preserving leather that is invaluable in our Webfoot country, where our boots are exposed to so much water. It is absolutely and leather preservative, filling the grain and keeping out the water. Country merchants who want to sell an article that is certain to give satisfaction should make a trial order of Dippelll's Blacking. See adv. Pg 630.
DEATH CERTIFICATE: 
OBITUARY: 
DIPPELL In this city, on Sunday, July 5, 1885, Mr. Henry Dippell, aged 68 years. 
The subject of this sketch was born near Hesse Cassel, Germany, on March 14th 1817. He came to America in 1840, and settled in Philadelphia. He was married in that city on November 26th, 1844, to Williamina Tillman. They removed to Pittsburgh in 1849, where they resided for seventeen years, and removed to Waukesha, Wisconsin, remaining there four years. They removed to Salem in October 1870, and this city has been their home ever since. 
Mr. Dippell was a shoemaker by trade, and was a man highly respected for his honor and integrity. His word was considered as good as his oath or his note, and his friends were numbered in the same enumeration with his acquaintances. At the time of his death he was city treasurer of Salem, having been elected to that office at the last municipal election. The bereaved family have the sympathy of the entire community in this their sad hour of affliction. 
The funeral services will be held at the Evangelical church to-day (Tuesday), at 2 o’clock p.m. - thence to the Odd Fellows’ cemetery, where all that is mortal of this good man will be laid to rest.
