2004-10-30 - Used the church's existing 1845 E. & G. G. Hook case (Op. 44, 1841, 2-16 -on Hook list as 2nd Congregational) and some old pipes. The Hook had been enlarged by Hook for a new building as Op. 63 of 1845. Replaced by a 3m Kimball, Smallman & Frazee in 1911, which gave out c. 1973. The Roche organ used chests and pipes of the remains of a 2m electrified tracker from the basement of Immaculate Conception R. C. in Lowell, MA. -Database Manager
