Piano Salesman Story
By Dan Harrett

Hello, I've been searching without success to find again a delightful
story online.  It was ostensibly written by a 19th century rural
housewife about her troubles with competing organ and piano traveling
salesman, and the hilarious tactics they used to persuade her to
purchase their product over the other's.  Does anyone know where
(or if) this tale still resides? I recall it was linked to a player
piano web site.
