2012-01-23 - Information adapted from notes prepared by Stephen J. Schnurr for the 2012 OHS Atlas: -- "The chapel of the east wing housed a 1911 organ, Opus 38, built by the Wicks Organ Company of Highland Illinois. The two-manual, nine-rank instrument had tubular-pneumatic action and 516 pipes. <br><br>"This organ was moved to the present chapel. It quickly proved inadequate, and plans for another instrument were soon formulated. " -Database Manager
