“Narthex” Organ: James Jackson and Son, New York built 1834 (builder’s plate) (purchased used in 1837)

Sticker action similar to a melodeon

One manual –short compass

(8’?) Principal

The organ is pumped with a foot pedal which is inoperative due to a fatigue crack 
in the bell crank that drives the feeder.  The organ has a set of display pipes 
that, while dumb, are actual pipes voiced so slow that they do not speak. 
Pipework is made of common metal and an unidentified soft wood. The stoppers are 
hand carved rather than lathe turned.
