H. NJ. DinWOOdey, president and man

company, is one of the substantial and
conservative business men of the city.
For over thirty years, ever since he has
been identified with the big business
concern, ne has been a booster for a
greater Salt Lake, and at the present
time is preaching the gospel of boost in
stronger terms than ever before by his
work in building up a still more sue
Cessful business institution.
When fire destroyed the DinwOodey
three-story structure on First South
street in 1890, with the spirit of push
and boost characteristic of the Din
wOodeys, work was soon commenced on
another building. This time however,
it was a siX-stOry structure and was
completed for the holiday business. The
building erected at that time is the one
that now serves as a home for the Din
WOOdey concern.
In 1891 the firm, which up until that
time had been known as II. Dinwoodey,
was reOrgauized under the firm name
of H. DinWOOdey Furniture company.
