Mr. Ernest M. Skinner
Methuen
Massachusetts

Dear Mr. Skinner:

After three years of constant playing on the instrument which you built for the Washington Cathedral, it is a pleasure to write to you about its excellencies. It incorporates all the fine things for which you are justly honored. I believe that it is a work of art which will always be regarded as a landmark in the history of organ building, and its tonal beauty will afford inspiration to countless numbers of people in the years to come.

Very sincerely yours,
Paul Callaway
Organist and Choirmaster
