2012-04-30 - Identified through online information from Jeff Scofield. -- Factory correspondence refers to a Burke organ being damaged by fire in February 1955; the Möller contract was for a new console, new tremolos, some new pipework and tonal changes; the chapel suffered fire damage again in 1989; the organ was dispersed shortly thereafter, with the console going to George Miller for rebuilding and installation as part of the extensive renovation of the Ruffatti at North Ave. Presbyterian Church, Atlanta, GA. -Database Manager
2023-11-04 - I was a organ student here in the late 60's. The organ was installed across the rear balcony and the console was on the chapel floor, to the left of and facing the stage. The organ was fun to play and put out quite a sound; the swell shades closed when the organ was turned off, so when you turned the organ on and the shades opened, it was always fun to see what would fly out of the organ - mostly birds, but occasionally bats. -Jeff Scofield
