NOTES
This organ was originally built for the Episcopal Cathedral of St. Paul in Boston.
According to the OHS Database, the organ was rebuilt by Hutchings with a new keydesk and
reinstalled here at St. Thomas Aquinas. It was later restored Philip Beaudry. It was un-
used by 1985 per Alan Laufman, but was made playable for the 2000 OHS convention by Scot
L. Huntington. This organ received OHS Citation number 265 on August 18, 2000.
