History of Manistee, MASON and Oceana counties, Michigan
H. R. Page & Co., Chicago - 1882

 -67-
 
      CHARLES L. TRIPP, dealer in tobacco, cigars and fancy goods,
   Ludington, is a native of New York State, and came to Ludington in
   1868.  His brother, GEORGE TRIPP, had been here for thirteen years,
   and having prospered, CHARLES was tempted to follow after.  In 1878
   he started in his present business on Ludington Avenue.  He was burned
   out in the fire of June, 1881, and suffered considerably.  As soon as
   the WHITE & DANAHER Block, corner Ludington Avenue and James Street,
   was finished, he moved into it and has since done a very prosperous
   business.
