I left the [Manchester Holy Trinity Church Choir] having been elected a member of the Parish Church of Sale Moor, a place a few miles out of Manchester. This was a paid Choir & consisted of female Sopranos & Altos, & tenors and Basses all professionals from Manchester. I forget who was Organist but we sang from the gallery & besides the organ (which was a small one) we had violin & cello accompaniments. Sale Moor was a sort of suburb of Manchester where many of the merchants lived. I used to enjoy my Sundays there as I got on very well with the members of the Choir, we all dined together at the Hotel, spending the afternoons in the garden etc and it was nice hearing the birds sing & enjoying the fresh air of the country after being shut up in an office all the week.
