ACard from Britting Il Bro.


In your issue of the 18th inst. you do us
great injustice by your misstatements in
regard to the Decker piano war that has
been going on in New York three years
among the different Decker piano firms.
In your incorrect report you say that we,
Britting d Bro, are manufacturing pianos
in this city and labelling them with "Decker
e Bros" or the Decker" name which we
declare falseand untrue to the core. All
pianos we manufacture we put our own
firm name of Brtting & Bro. on them, and
no other name about it. Our house has
been established here in this city for the
past forty years, and the high standing, fair
and honorable dealing with the
public in general, can not be
nor never was questioned, and
nobody would believe those misstatements
in that Decker trumpet article. We have
acted as agents for two Decker piano firms
of New York. Some time in the year 1875
we bought of Decker & Bros six pianos so
Marked and sold them as such in this mar
ket; but that firm having gone out of ex-
istence short time after we purchased
these pianos, our trade ceased in them
and the other one is Decker & Son, which
we are selling to-day, which house was es-
tablshed by Myron A. Decker in the year
1856, and has been making frst-class pianos
ever since. They have a large factory on
Third avenue New York.
