DETAILS
This instrument is: Not Extant and Not Playable in this location
From "A History of Meredith College" (Mary Lynch Johnson, 1972): "Thirty-one new Stieff pianos were bought in 1906; and the same year a pipe organ, said to be the largest in North Carolina at that time, was installed. Counting the installation the organ bought from a Presbyterian church in Buffalo, cost $4,700."
This is likely Wm. Johnson & Son, Op. 533 (1879) from North Presbyterian Church, Buffalo NY, which installed a new Austin organ that year.
Jim Stettner on July 31st, 2026:
This entry is presumed to represents the installation of a new organ. Identified through online information from Zenas M. Savage [July 31, 2026].
