Updated through online information from Matthew Dion. -- Organ built by Ernest M. Skinner and installed in the church for the sum of $10,000.00 Aeolian-Skinner was retained to rebuild the organ in 1964. Proposal was never fully completed but releathering was done on "easy to reach places" and the replacement of the original magnet and relay system with a new system. Also the only tonal change consisted of making the pedal Bourdon play on the Great at 8' from the original 16'. Organ was again cleaned and restored by Emery Brothers of Doylestown PA in 2002.
