Identified through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- The organ is housed in a front alcove and housed behind a large and handsome quarter-sawn oak case. The main facade is 3-sectional, having a large center flat flanked by two elevated towers and has 27 pipes arranged arranged 5-17-5. On either side of the towers of 5 are 6 "tomato can" gold dummy pipes. And across the top of the case are 21 large, gold, "tomato can" dummy pipes. The organ arrived in Miles City in late November, 1916. It was a gift of city founder Geo. M. Miles, and cost $5,000.00. It's weight was reported to be 14,960 lbs.
