ATTENTION H. ULRICH
R. O. Wipperman Denies the
Allegations Made in a Local
Paper.


Paper.
To the Edltor.-The editors Of the
Wisconsin Valley Leader published IN
their issue of January 81, letter
purporting to be written by Henry
Ulrich of Chicago, the real estate
dealer which reads as follows
To whom it may concern:
In the Daily REPORTER under date
Jan. %. 1907, r. o. Wipperman states
as follows: Henry Ullrich is under
$4,000 bonds.'' This statement is a
false add malicious lie, and if this
worthy gentleman, this self-consti-
tuted Investigator, had investigated
the records of the Appellate court,
which is the only court which has Mr..
Ullrich's case under advisement, he
could have learned the truth from the
official records instead of rushing
home half-cocked aud putting himself
in the position Of one who maliciOusly
publishes lie.
The statements published in the
letter written by Mr.. Ullrich to Mr..
Brown were meant and are just as
they were written and published, and
it is a singular coincidence that the
first administrator sale ever handled
bv Mr. Ullrich was made in the Office
of Herman Wipperman, father OF h.
o. Wipperman, many years ago, long
before r. O. Wipperman had ever
entered into business. This was the
Warning Estate of which Mr.. Wiper
man, ST., was administrator, and the
property was sold for Mr.. Wipperman
as administrator If Mr.. Wipperman
cares to be honest enough to look up
the records in his fathers office or in
the court house, he can satisfy himself
Of the truth Of this. / will also be
glad to furnish Mr.. Wipperman with
the date of dozens of other instances
where Henry Ullrich Co., have sold
property in a similar way for the adj
illustrators.
The main burden of Mr.. Wiper
mans malice seems to lie in the fact
that he could not succeed ia the real
estate business in the city of Chicago.
Mr.. Wipperman has no one TO blame
for this but himself.
1t is not at all surprising that
people become suspicious when Mr.
Of
an acre as he offered to me in my office
last summer, said land lying in the
town of Big Flats and being worth
only about So an acre, and | did not
hesitate to tell Mr.. Wipperman sc
when he asked me to assist him sci
this land. And it makessMr. Wiper
man look rather foolish, to say the
least, to come TO me voluntarily anC
try to get me to sell land for him tina,
he could not sell himself and ther
afterwards trump up complaints
Wipperman really honestly felt DIS in
his letter he pretends to feel would he
have come to me to help him out?
The fact is, r. o. Wipperman is d
young man with limited experience in
the real estate business, and it is
possibly natural for him TO feel bad &c
see others around him succeed while
he fails. But, as | said before, the
fault of his failure lies with him.
And it is possibly this very weakness
of going off half-cocked and quitting
before he is half through as he appears
to have done IN his so called investi-
cation in Chicago, instead of sticking
until he has everything complete,
that accounts for his lamentable lack
of success. To be success in the real
estate or any other business, man
has got to stick until he gains his
point, and if Mr., Wipperman con-
tinueS to be Satitied to do things in a
careless and irresponsible manner as is
apparent in this matter it will be the
source of more than one case of dis
grace and modification before he
dies HENRY ULLRICH
Chicago, I'll.
