Andrew Scanlon on March 13th, 2022:
This entry represents the moving to and re-installation of an existing organ in a new home.
A paper brochure guidebook to Saint Paul's Church says: "This chamber organ was built in the 1850s by Wm B.D. Simmons. Most recently, the organ was in use at Saint John's Seminary in Brighton, MA. The organ is very gently tempered and has six ranks of pipes."
