NOTES
This organ was relocated thru the Organ Clearing House to Calvary Episcopal Church in Burnt Hills New York after a 1966 fire destroyed all but 2 ranks of their 2nd, used pipe organ – a 1-manual, Wm. A. Johnson, Opus 415. The Tallman was installed with a new case and tonal changes by Sidney Chase of Worcester, NY.
