Identified through on-line information from Douglas Adams. -- Based on the Walker organ from the previous (second) cathedral building. Expanded from 16 to 31 stops and from 2 to 3 manuals. Funds were insufficient for a new organ. Windchests from the Walker organ were electrified and a second-hand electric console with many superfluous stop knobs was provided. Ref: Graham Steed writing in The Canadian Music Journal, (Vol. 2 No. 4, Summer 1958)
