2014-11-22 - Updated through online information from james miller. -- Leather is going bad quickly - church does not even have funds to repair roof -- there is an echo organ and an antiphonal -- there is a smaller console in a Sunday school room behind those divisions which plays the rear two divisions -- it has been disconnected as its stop tabs would interfere with the main organ -- the rear divisions are used on the main organ's first hymn and on the last hymn but at no other time during the service. The Sunday School class sings the first and last hymns with those in the church proper. One swell shutter into the Sunday school area is propped open for this purpose. I have substituted here on occasion and have cared for this instrument (Miller Pipe Organ Company)for 30 years. -Database Manager
