Review: New York Post, 09 July 1869, 2.

“The new organ, built by Messrs. Hall, Labagh & Co. for the Westminster Presbyterian Church in West Twenty-second street, was exhibited last evening by Messrs. Fielding and Walter, organists, assisted by the choirs of the Reformed Church in Fifth avenue. The organ is a fine-toned instrument of medium size, containing over three thousand pipes, twenty-five registers, and two sets of keys and pedals. It is very beautiful externally, and is well adapted to the size of the church and the needs of the congregation.”
