This entry represents the installation of a used organ. Identified from the parish history: Christ Church Washington Parish / A Brief History which states on page 16, "In 1972, Christ Church acquired a Hook and Hastings pipe organ -- for $500 -- when St. Cyprian’s Roman Catholic Church on Capitol Hill was merged with another parish. It was reassembled along with pipes from St. James Episcopal Church on 8th Street NE. This Herculean effort was undertaken by Jim Ackwright and Dan Meyer, the Christ Church music minister."

The caption on the attached black & white image also stated, "After several years of an electronic organ, Christ Church eagerly welcomed the pipe organ crafted of organ parts from St. Cyprian’s and St. James."
