This was a cry from the depth of the soul. It was come for our liberty. The people had no weapons, so come with axes, spears, anything that you can lay your hand on, that may aid you in the defense of our country and our liberty. This day of prayer was observed from 1777 to 1783.

Organ.
In the year 1795 the congregation purchased a new organ, built by Tannenberg, of Lititz, Lancaster county, Pennsylvania. The organ had 44 octaves, 8 stops, of which one was a triplet consist- ing of 3 pipes for each note, making a combination of piccolo and other similar tuned voiced instruments; this key or stop was, however, very seldom used by any organist, excepting on occasions of large congregations being assembled, and on the people leaving the church after services.
The front of the organ consisted of metal pipes and not painted; the case of the organ was painted white. On the key- board the keys that sound the notes in the diatonic scale were black, while the remainder were white-just the opposite from what they are today. The bellows were not built in the organ, but resting on the floor or ceiling above the organ; the wind came down through tubes connecting with the wind-chest in the organ. The bellows were operated by ropes run over pulleys above the ceiling and run down close to the wall back of the organ. There was no tremolo stop, but by manipulating the ropes or pulling them in a quivering way the effect of the tremolo was very effectively produced. When there was a funeral the organist gave special caution and instruction to the one manipulating the ropes to pull them in such a way as to produce the proper effect, but at such occasions the temptations were often too great for the one pulling the ropes, who would pretend that he did not under- stand how to pull the ropes, and so he gave them sudden jerks and thus produced very ludicrous sounds, to the discomfort of the organist and to the merriment of those on the gallery.
