NOTES
The church's first pipe organ was a used, I-manual & pedal of 11 ranks built ca. 1863
by William A. Johnson of Springfield, Mass. It was moved to St. James Episcopal in 1938
and served only 10 years before being replaced by the Möller.
The Möller is installed in a small chamber on the left side of the church towards the
front. It is behind the choir stalls. The façade contains 11 gold-painted dummy pipes
in a quarter-sawn oak grille. The organist faces into the church with the chamber behind.
