Andrew Henderson on October 14th, 2025:

From the Welland Telegraph (December 13, 1910): "The congregation of Holy Trinity Church heard with pleasure on Sunday for the first time music from their handsome pipe organ, which was installed in the church this past week. The organ was built by Edward Lye & Son of Toronto. The pipes are sweet in tone, and the Dulciana particularly delicate and soft, while the full organ, which is very attractive, gives ample power for congregational music. The different stops are well balanced, and carefully voiced, so that the music is free from unevenness. W. C. Legg[e] presided at the organ on Sunday, and after the evening service gave a splendid recital, accompanied with appropriate singing by members of the choir. The organ contains 149 pipes and is a one-manual organ. The case is of ash with console in walnut. The height of the instrument is ten feet five inches, width five feet three inches."


Andrew Henderson on October 11th, 2025:

From The People's Press (Welland, ON, November 29, 1910): "Holy Trinity has not only a splendid choir, but an enterprising one as well having raised sufficient money from its own resources to purchase a pipe organ, which will probably be installed for next Sunday's services ... The height of the instrument is 10 ft 5 in in width, 5 ft. 3 in. in depth, 5 ft. The organ is in reality, a one manual organ, but has a second manual, used for the same stops, which is useful where the hands are crossed, as in solo with staccato accompaniment or for practice purposes. The bellows are arranged to be blown by hand, though there is also a foot pedal provided."

The organ was evidently sold to Holy Trinity Anglican Church in Fonthil the following year.
