DETAILS
"This splendid little organ was built for the Methodist Church in Chatham, Mass., which purchased a 2-9 Hook & Hastings in 1897 (gutted a few years ago for imitation organ speakers). The Hook was moved to the Congregational Church in Tyngsboro, Mass., where it served until an electronic arrived in 1944. It was then moved by Rostron Kershaw of Lowell to Calvary Baptist Church in Haverhill, Mass." (Boston Organ Club Newsletter, October 1967)
