Updated by Steven Bartley, naming this as the source of information: Baltimore Sun Paper Aug 4, 1875 pg4.
Sun Paper article says that the new church building was nearing completion. The organ is divided into two cases in the gallery, either side of the stained glass window; with key pneumatic action. Contains 3,000 pipes, two manuals, weights 24,000 pounds. The front pipes are not gilded, but of \"Roman colors\" woodwork of Walnut. Cases designed by Frank Davis, architect of the building. A 1970s photo of the church, showing one of the cases exists, though local organist lore says the organ or cases have since been removed.
An original installation. Identified by John Igoe, using information found in Johnson Organs, 1844-1898: Wm. A Johnson, Johnson Organ Co., Johnson & Son: a documentary issued in honor the two hundredth anniversary of his birth, 1816-2016 / by Scot L. Huntington, Len Levasseur, Barbara Owen, Stephen L.
