2007-04-30 - Identified through online information from James R. Stettner. -- The organ is believed to have been an original installation. And the date coincides with the time the new cathedral was being built. But the standard hinged Möller junction board in the back of the console said "Easton, PA." The organ suffered from a lot of damage and problems. The window behind the organ was broken at some time and the Pedal Bourdon chest got wet, resulting in some ciphers. Access was very tight, and pipes were damaged as technicians climbed in and out. Plus the chimes had to be partially removed for access. The Kinetic blower was difficult to access, so it wasn't lubed regularly. The main chest was also damaged by water, and the console was literally full of rodent feces. In 1997, Stettner & Larson of Seattle/Spokane releathered the flute switches; removed and cleaned the Oboe and had a replacement pipe made by Trivo for the missing g# 45; cleaned the console of all rodent debris using Hanta Virus precautions; and replaced worn felt bushings and leather nuts in the key action. The stoppers were still in fairly urgent need of releathering, and the chest pouchboards needed releathering as well. The Möller was replaced in 2003 with a new Fritts tracker. The Möller was removed by Michael Gardner of Tacoma and was reportedly combined with the 1970's Möller at St. John's Episcopal in Gig Harbor, Washington. The console shell was gutted and became an A-V console in the Cathedral. -Database Manager

2016-01-01 - Updated through online information from Sean Haley. <br>The Moller chests with pipework and shades were relocated and merged with the existing 2.5 rank Moller at St. John's Episcopal, Gig Harbor. The existing became an elevated unenclosed Great and the components from St. Mark's became the Swell in a chamber beneath. The existing console of St. John's was modified with a crudely reworked stop rail. Further alterations with preparations for an enlarged combination action were done by Don Wallin of Tacoma. -Database Manager
