Christian Tedesco on December 20th, 2024:
This innovative instrument was equipped with "swiss spring chests" (actually cone chests), a crescendo pedal, tri-pressure wind system, implying the use of a higher pressure for some stops or divisions as well as an even higher pressure for the action. Dwight's Journal may 14 1859.

Replaced in 1910 with a new Skinner. Appleton Chapel razed in 1932 to make way for the present Memorial Church.
