2007-10-13 - Identified through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- Installation of used 1895 Henry Pilcher's Sons organ from the Chapel in Morrill Hall at the Iowa State Agricultural College. Last used on May 1, 1949. William H. Barnes consulted about fate of organ. Decided to save only the pipes, which were stored in the basement of the parsonage. New building built, and some of the Pilcher pipes (6 ranks) were combined with some of the used 1925 Austin that the church acquired. Unused Pilcher & Austin pipes sold to Frank Wichlac of Chicago on May 1, 1950. -Database Manager
