He may have had a boot shop in Kenosha in 1838 located on what was Pearl Street.
"Mr. Dye, who made it a rule to make no pretensions that were not substantially warranted by facts, not to, mislead the public as to the article they would obtain at his shop, put no other letters on his sign board except those composing the two words, "Coarse Boots." But the business of boot making was but little in unison with Mr. Dr. Dye's taste or inclination. Singing, and teaching others, to sing, were his peculiar delight. It mattered not how pressing the work in his shop might be, he would gather into it all the little children in the neighborhood, and practice them in his favorite pursuit."
