When discovered in 1984, the organ was missing all its metal pipes but was otherwise intact. It is the only extant Pratt organ with a nameplate (brass). The organ has an identical twin in the Storrowton Village Chapel (W. Springfield, Mass.). This was the Pratt family chamber organ and given to the Storrowton museum by Pratt's grand-daughter in 1933.
On-line information from Roland R. Rutz: -- "I restored this instrument. It was purchased and placed in the Conant Public Library/Museum through the efforts of Mrs. Edith Atkins, Director."
Found in a basement storeroom at Carleton College, Northfield, Minnesota in 1985. Subsequently acquired and restored by Roland Rutz, Faribault, Minnesota. Loaned to Conant Library which in 1991 was seeking to raise $15,000 to purchase the instrument.
