WO pretty little girls in New ge York think they are future Jenny Linds. Their mother, Mrs. John Tobin of No. 490 River- side Drive, has purchased the fa- mous autographed Jerty Lind piano upon which the Swedish nightingale played her own accom- paniments and which Frieda Hem- pel used in the recent centennial celebration in this city purchased 7 this plano two years ago from Mr. Edwin Isham,” sald Mrs. Tobin, “and now both of my little girls, Flora, aged nine, and Ann, aged two and a half, think they are going to follow in the footsteps of Miss Lind) My mother was a great admirer of Miss Lind, and the whole family look upon her as an idol, Now both of my children sing and play all day, and my oldest little girl really does very well, according to Her singing teacher. Mrs. Tobin sald that the Jenny Lind piano belonged to Mr. Isham for thirty years. His family pur. chased the piano from Mrs. John Buckley, who bought it directly after the concert in 1850.
