"CHURCH ORGANS. The First Universalist Society of Roxbury have just contracted with the Baumgarten Company of New Haven Conn., for the erection of an organ in their church, at a cost of about $6000. This company has had great success in organ-building, having already a reputation second to none in the country, their instruments receiving the first indorsement of Paine, Thayer, Morgan, and many other prominent organists."
