This letter is informative, as it shows Dodge Manufacturing of Mishawaka trying it’s hand at providing music for theaters via a type of commercial phonograph system, capable of being heard throughout the auditorium. It also indicates that at the time, the theater also possessed a Kimball theater organ, as the Lerner in Elkhart does today.
