Online update from Karl Petersen: In the winter of 1960 David Camp, now of Rochester, and I (freshmen at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute) put the organ back working after decades of neglect, and it disappeared completely the next summer. The ??Musical Courier item may refer to the chancel organ and additions but not to this organ which was across the alley on the second floor of the parish house in the northeast corner.
Database Manager on October 30th, 2004:
Originally had water motor. Removed about summer 1961. Believed to have been scrapped, but may have been donated to a country parish. [??Musical Courier: 11 June 1880: New organ to be placed in chancel, to be connected with the present organ by the pneumatic process, to cost over $5000.]
