From the St. Catharines Standard, July 8, 1910, upon installation of the organ at the Presbyterian Church in Port Dalhousie, Ontario: "The organ was procured from the congregation of St. Paul's Presbyterian Church, Hamilton (which church has just installed a new instrument, one of the best manufactured). It was built by the Steere & Turner Co., of Springfield, Mass., is of the two manual variety, and is equipped with 8 speaking stops in the swell organ, 10 stops in the great organ, and 2 speaking stops in the pedal organ. There are also 10 mechanical registers, couplers, combinations, etc. The pipes number in all 900. The compass of the manual is 58 notes, of the pedals 27 notes ... the appearance of the organ is most handsome. The woodwork is of solid ash throughout and the pipes are ornamented in gold leaf."
