Simmons & Willcox
1854

The organ at this church was built at the same time as the edifice itself-in 1854-and was the individual gift of Mrs. Geo. M. Tibbits. It was constructed by Simmons & Wilcox, of Boston, and has thirty-five stops and three banks. Mr. J. L. Bacon is organist; the choir, we believe, consists of Misses Bailey and Benton, Messrs. Hopkins and Crandell.
