DETAILS
This instrument is: Not Extant and Not Playable in this location
In 1859, Holy Apostles established a mission, known as "The Chapel of the Free Gospel." The chapel, located nearby on West Twenty-ninth Street, was open to poor families who would not be able to attend a church with rented pews. Shortly before Christmas of 1859, a small organ costing $500 was installed. The mission did not flourish, perhaps because of its close proximity to the mother church, and the building was sold in 1866.
Database Manager on October 30th, 2004:
Around 1866, the small organ was moved to Holy Apostles church and installed in the chancel.
