XIV BIBLIOGRAPHY.
1833 he went to Paris, but innocent of any intention of remaining
there. Whilst at Paris he heard of a competition for the building
of an organ for the important Abbey Church of St. Denis. Although
but two days of the appointed lease of time yet remained, he succeeded
in lodging his tender. So interesting were the novelties, such as
harmonic pipes, divided wind pressure, etc., introduced into his
scheme, that he was selected to build the organ. This instrument,
the success of which was largely due to his perspicacity in adopting
Barker's pneumatic lever, formed the foundation on which he reared
a wide-spread reputation. Cavaille'-Coll died in 1899. The name
Coll, which he affixed to his surname, was that of his grandmother.
