Auby's Travels Vol II p.272.

Organ has many
Pipes to swell the base
which are of an amazing
circumference, and these
are played upon by the
feet there being a row
of wooden keys that the
performer treads on. I
do not ever recollect seeing
an organ of this construction
except those of the
Savoy Chapel and St
Pauls in the latter
are shut up as the
vibration of sound was
found too powerful
for the dome; but the
they had only four or
five of those wooden
keys whereas this
organ has a dozen
the man who showed
the instrument play
on it and the effect
of these keys was
astonishing it also
absolutely made the very
building shake.
