-- "Farrand & Votey Organ Co.: Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 11, 1892. Gentlemen-The organ built by you for the First Presbyterian Church of this city is now in position and has been thoroughly tested by both professional and amateur performers. These, without exception, are enthusiastic in their expressions of approval and admiration of its special features and the general excellence of the instrument. Committees from other cities empowered to purchase pipe organs have examined this one, and though prejudiced in favor of other makers, have, with singular unanimity, decided in favor of the Farrand & Votey and declare that they will have no other. Our own congregation are delighted with their purchase. Personally, I thank you for the very satisfactory manner in which you filled the order sent you last February. Very truly, H. T. PHILLIPS, Chairman Music Committee. "
