Dear M. WebsT:-As leave New York to-mor-
row, let me Kindly thank You for the upright Piano
which used all summer in Kingston, and before
that IN the city since my arrival in America. Your
Upright Pianos are extraordinary instrun-nts
They have an astonishing fullEess and wealth e
voice; The action 1 End charming, and this one
surprised me by hardly ever needing the tuner
Neur instruments fully deserve the great success
which hey have obtained.
