Database Manager on May 23rd, 2008:

Updated through on-line information from Daniel Hopkins. -- This Organ was replaced with a 2 manual tubular-pneumatic Karn pipe organ. I am quite certain that this instrument was later rebuilt or renovated by Casavant. I will get more info when I return there this summer. Actually I will go to all of the churches in Charlottetown and get the organ specs and info. The facade of the original Karn pipe organ still exists. I will send a picture. It is impressive.

Database Manager on June 16th, 2005:

Identified through information in Descriptive Catalogue of Superior Church Organs Manufactured by Geo. H. Ryder & Co., published in Boston, January, 1896. Dates are not included in the publication; the one given here is conjectural.
