Robert William Knupp on April 10th, 2023:

This entry represents the enlargement of an existing organ installed used in 1925, which had originally been a 1902 Carl Barckhoff Co. instrument.

Ranks were added in the 1974 rebuild, which was done by Billy Trotter, organ professor at Mississippi College at that time. He ordered parts from Organ Supply Industries, and a console from Reuter.

As of 2022, it is in working condition, but needs extensive work. The Chapel (Old Sanctuary) is still used for Funerals/Weddings and the organ is used occasionally.
