MR. F. LIPP. 
Mr. F. Lipp, who died at his home in 
Cocoa May 8, was born in Bavaria, Ger¬ 
many, 1844; he came to the United 
States, 1882, New York, and in 1886 
moved to City Point, Fla., remaining for 
one year. After that he came to Cocoa 
and has lived here since. He was mar¬ 
ried the second time 33 years ago to the 
present wife, who survives him. He was 
buried in the Cocoa cemetery Saturday 
evening, with only the formal burial cere¬ 
mony, read by his old time friend Mr. R. 
N. Andrews, and his remains now rest 
by the side of his little son who died 21 
years ago. A large number of friends 
were present. Mr. Lipp has been unwell 
for almost a year, and bore his affliction 
with great patience. He was kind—a good 
neighbor, and his closest neighbors for 
21 years bear testimony to his genuine 
worth as a citizen. The old song “kind 
hearted and true’’ sums up the life of 
Mr. Lipp, and many admirers will miss 
him.
