Database Manager on February 07, 2006:

Updated through online information from Eric Anderson. -- The organ is a rebuild of Hook & Hastings Opus 2189 (1908), still on its original slider chests; however, tubular stop and pulldown action replaced with electro-pneumatic. Swell 4' Violina cut down to 2' Flageolet, and great 8' string replaced by 4' octave. Highly elaborate stenciled case. Remainder is unaltered to date (2/7/06), and under the care of Richard Lahaise, whose family has maintained it since installing it for Hook and Hastings.
