A CORNER OF THE J.C.S. MORLEY'S HARP FACTORY NEAR KENSINGTON STATION Harp Factories, regulated so as to satisfy the most exacting musical ear. A MOST IMPORTANT POINT IN THE REPAIR OF HARPS Is the use of WELL SEASONED DRY TIMBER. At the Sale by Auction of the contents of Messieurs ERARD'S Factory at Kensington, London, on September 9th, 1890, MR. MORLEY acquired by purchase, many of the Machines, original Scales and Templets used by Sebastian ERARD in the construction of his HARPS some 60 years ago. MR. MORLEY also bought a large portion of Erard's Stock of Swiss Pine for sound boards, Satin-wood Veneer, Bird's-eye Maple, Hundreds of Harp Bodies, Harp Pillars, Harp Necks, and Pedal Boxes, which had lain seasoning and drying—most of it—for half a century.
