that they inferior and they compelled TO take
hold Of other makers, perhaps su inferior
although pulled up by them celebrated Pianos whom
at tho same time such makers have never been

is that our citizens are oien Induced to purchase such
inferior instruments, without considering their own tho
general interests Of their city.
The advantages citizens have In encouraging home
