Updated through online information from T. Bradford Willis, DDS. -- A correction to my earlier update: -- This organ from the Hippodrome was donated in 1928 to the First Methodist Church, 403 S. 5th St., Waco. The organ was again relocated in 1963 to the new First Methodist Church edifice, 4901 Cobbs Drive, Waco, TX, 76710. The new edifice was designed by Henry J. Steinbomer of San Antonio, TX.
