HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Huron News-Record, 1894-12-19, Page 17The Milo Trade Review, New York, in, its annual review of the Canadian trade says of the Doherty Organ : st, "Their organs are acknowledged .leaders and always in demand, regard- less of hard times, as shown by the fact that they have run full time with complete staff of tvorkrnon for the last year, the only exclusive organ firm that we know of who has done so. This is saying a good deal. "Their organs possess a perfection of detail and close conformity to require- ments not found in many other organs. "Their organs have stood the test of severe usage and climate in all parts of the world and rank higher to -day than ever. "They•are universally known as com- bining sweetness and power of tone, skill and thorough mechanism and ele- gantly designed cases. Sold at reason- able prices, the result of a quarter of a century's experience and careful study, their organs are no experiment, but the practical result of recognized merit and ample facilities." A Kingston paper refers in the follow- ing to an Organ we recently had the pleas- ure of supplying the Wolfe Island Roman Catholic church: "Rev. T. J. Spratt treated his con- gregation to a "surprise party" by an- nouncing that he had placed a new organ in the parish church. On lots Sunday he secured the services of Ernest Cunningham. Under his mas- ter touch a variety of beautiful music was furnished after, the regular service. The choir also sang. His reverence asked the congregation to signify their approval of the instrument by a stand- ing vote. which they did, after which he submitted his scheme for its pay- ment, by sending leading parishion- ers around with subscription books. Though surprised somewhat at its pur- chase, after hearing its fine tone and calibre the generous congregation con- gratulated themselves and felt pleased at the practical astuteness of their pastor in securing such an instrument. The new organ is a Doherty make, reed, pipe style. The old one will be raffled, it is -said. The church choir will be "out of sight" literally, at least, as the new organ is a very high one." nr.reruei • 4141'' u.unaiinu:wilu,io ,. f GEM MODEL. Music reveals what poet cannot write. MACHNEN.
