KELLER, Mrs. Geo – Receives Beautiful Christmas Present (1870)

One of them most beautiful Christmas gifts, of the presentation of which we have heard, was one given to Mrs. Geo. KELLER by her husband.  It is a square grand piano, made by Knabe, of Baltimore, and is a most magnificent instrument, not only in finish but in tone and power.  This is a most appropriate gift to a lady whose musical talent, the high order of which is too well known in this city to need commendation, has never been wanting when charity called upon her to assist in the benevolent musical entertainments for which our city is famous.  Long may she enjoy the possession of a talent that is the charm of the home circle and the delight of her friends and the public.
