INSTALL LYON & HEALY ORGAN. Richmond, Va., April 9, 1907.<br>    "A magnificent pipe organ will be installed in St. Paul's Episcopal Church before September 1 by Lyon & Healy, of Chicago. The organ will be in two compartments, and will be the finest in the South, as well as the first of its kind ever put in any church south of New York.<br>    "The contract has been signed and calls for the installation of the organ before September 1. The work of putting in the organ will very probably be done during the month of August; the present organ to be used up to that time.<br>    "The main organ will contain thirty-four stops, and will be located in the place the old instrument occupies at the present, while the echo organ, containing eight stops, including chimes, will be placed in the old organ gallery. The entire instrument will have a total of forty-two stops. When the chime stops are used the music is exquisite, the air being carried by the bells which have a far away but distinct sound that blends in perfect harmony with the other notes of the organ."<br> -<i>The Music Trade Review</i>, April 13, 1907.
