2025-04-16 - Updated through online information from Andrew Henderson (April 15, 2025): From *The Democrat and Chronicle* (Rochester, NY., July 27, 1900): "The opening recital on the new organ in the Cornhill Methodist Church was given last night by James E. Bagley, the organist and choirmaster of Christ Church ... the organ is a fine instrument of two manuels [sic] and twenty speaking stops and the full diapasons, brilliant reeds and delicate flute and string tones were all well displayed. The full organ is especially brilliant and designed to sustain the hearty congregational singing for which Cornhill Church is noted." -Jim Stettner
