2014-07-17 - This entry describes an original installation of a new pipe organ. Identified by Andrew Henderson, using information found in The Daily Standard (St. Catharines), January 29, 1912. -- The organ was given by Mr. & Mrs. R. W. Leonard. Mr. T. J. Palmer, organist of St. Paul's Anglican Church, Toronto, played the opening recital and likely acted as consultant. The instrument was rebuilt and enlarged by the Woodstock Organ Co. in 1928, and ultimately replaced by Casavant Op. 3227 (1974). -Database Manager
