Book Description
Excerpt from Organs and Organ Building in New England The history of the Brattle organ has been comparatively uneventful, and the instrument is enjoying a peaceful old age. Such has not been the case with most of our historical organs, some of which have been gradually dismembered and some have disap peared altogether. The common fate of old organs is to be use-d as make shifts in new churches until a per manent instrument can be secured. Finally the old metal pipes are melted down and made Over and the wooden portions are used for kindling wood.

Excerpt from English Organ-Cases The question of cost limited the possession of an organ to the larger and wealthier churches. Where one was found in a building of lesser importance, it would generally be because some pious donor had decided that his benefaction should take that form, or because it had been lent, or given, or sold cheaply, by one of the greater churches which in course of time had come to possess more instruments than it really needed.
