In 1886 Mr. Freiberger came to America, and five years later, or in 1891, formed a copartnership with Jacob Ringger, under the style of Ringger & Freiberger. The firm engaged in the general woodworking business in West Hoboken. establishing a mill on the corner of Highpoint and Kerrigan Avenues. The venture proved successful from the start. In 1896 a disastrous fire burned their entire plant, but with commendable enterprise and courage they at once rebuilt, and now have one of the best equipped and most modern woodworking factories in their section. Mr. Freiberger attends to the inside or manufacturing work, while Mr. Ringger devotes himself to the business end.
