String breakage in Charles Walter

[Farrell]

How old is the piano? What type of piano is it? Did you do a large pitch 
raise? How much did you overpull? Was the forward termination showing any 
signs on sticking? Did you back down and "break the stickything" before 
pulling up to pitch? What vintage is it?

Charles Walter hasn't been in business long enough to demand a complete 
restringing when two strings break (IMHO).
