Altered and relocated existing organ.
Identified by Scot Huntington, based on personal knowledge of the organ.
-- Originally built for Calvary Episopal Church, Utica, New York in 1852, this heavily-traveled organ was removed from that church at an unknown date, possibly serving another church before being rebuilt by C.E. Morey, op. 206, 1903 for the Masonic Hall in Newark, New York. Removed prior to the building's demolition by the Organ Clearing House in 1975, the organ was sold to St. Mathew's Episcopal Church, Auburn, Washington, where it was installed with a new upper case façade (replacing Morey's pipe fence), but with no other changes or refurbishments by Seattle organist Randall J. McCarty.
After the Auburn church built a larger building, in 1998 the Clearing House relocated there E. & G.G. Hook & Hastings op. 591 (1871), restored by Patrick Murphy & Associates, and took back this Andrews organ in trade. Inexplicably, components were separated from one another: metal pipes appear in an instrument by David Wallace, while wood pipes, chassis and case in an organ by Jeremy Cooper.
