Database Manager on July 04, 2015:

Organ relocated without any change. Identified by James R. Stettner, based on information learned from a conversation with Walter Krueger, organist. -- This was the Hook & Hastings originally built for First Unitarian in Portland. The likely candidate for the moving and reinstallation was the Guenther Organ Co. of Portland, but this is not yet confirmed. Augustana Lutheran purchased the organ for $2,000.00.
