Paul R. Marchesano on September 20, 2021:

Built by Mr. Charles S. Haskell of this city. 14’ x 15’ organ room near the pulpit ... "19 speaking stops, 4 couples [sic], 5 combination pedals, and the only perfect crescendo pedal extant. This is Mr. Haskell's own invention. By a simple movement of the foot every stop may be put in or out, in proper order, an indicator showing the stops in use." --The Philadelphia Inquirer (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) · 7 Dec 1891, Mon · Page 3
