The organ is free-standing and encased at the front of the room with an attached,
projecting keydesk having a folding cover which lifts to form a music rack. The

The organ was electrified in 1962 by Rostron Kershaw of Lowell, Massachusetts with
some tonal changes in addition to mechanical changes.
