From The Hamilton Evening Times (August 1, 1865): "The new organ at St. Mary's Cathedral - the large and magnificent new organ built for St. Mary's Cathedral, at the manufactory of S. R. Warren, Montreal, has finally been completed and set up, after prolonged and skillful labor necessary to the work. Last evening a large number attended the cathedral, including representatives from congregations of most of the city churches, to listen to the opening performances, by Professor Fossier, the Organist of the Church, who was assisted by Mr. Charles Warren and Mr. Crowther. The varied effects of the splendid instrument were grand and powerful, and in the softer passages of the tone was pronounced exquisite. All who were present were profuse in expressions of delight at the performance, and no doubt the votaires of music generally will be anxious to listen to this triumph of musical mechanism ... "
