Lowell Mason in Holland - in the beginning of 1853

from Musical Letters from Abroad, page 303:

[Holland] is the country of organs also. Every church is supplied with keys and pipes, as a necessary part of its furniture. The organs, too, are (many of them) large and excellent, but are only used as an accompaniment to the chorus of the people.
