CARHART & NEEDHAM, I to the eed lay nce ties the 1 a bus "GENTLEMEN :-I have examined the improvements you have recently made in your Organs, and consider them both important and admirable. Your Combination Swell' produces the most perfect crescendo and diminuendo yet achieved upon this instrument, and the additional power of drawing on the stops one by one and taking them off by reverse action of the foot, is an improvement not to be over-estimated. The Octave Coupler' greatly increases the power and the brilliancy of the instrument, and the Movable Pedals' will be hailed by all who desire to practice pedal playing, as a most valuable and practical improvement. I cordially endorse their usefulness and excellence. Very obediently yours, "Messrs. CARHART & NEEDHAM, "KARL FORMES."

You have obtained by your Combination Swell not only a gradual and beautiful crescendo and diminuendo, but also the facility of drawing on and taking off the stops one after the other. Every player will appreciate this. By arranging for 'Movable Pedals' you add a new power to the Melodeon, which will be of immense advantage to all who are studying pedal playing, while your Octave Coupler' increases the quantity of tone, almost equal to doubling the number of stops.
