Andrew Henderson on October 2nd, 2023:
From *The Toronto Star* (November 22, 1902): "At a cost of over $2,000, the old organ in Wesley Church has been transformed into what is practically a new instrument. The work of reconstruction was put into the hands of Messrs. Breckles [sic] and Matthews, whose skill has been much appreciated by the committee of management. The tasteful decoration of the pipes and their arrangement, the delicacy of touch and tone of the instrument, the advantages of the electro-pneumatic action, were all manifest at last night's recital, as given by the choir, under Mr. Geo. D. Atkinson's leadership, who also is the organist of the church."
