The organ was relocated to the Ridge Avenue M.E. Church in Harrisburg in 1892, by Samuel Bohler, which was only being disposed "because that congregation have occupied their new and magnificent building at Duke and Walnut Streets...and have contracted for a larger and more powerful instrument." -- information from a report in the Harrisburg Daily Independent, 6 Jan 1892.
Paul R. Marchesano on January 28th, 2022:
"The new instrument is of full swell, has two banks [sic] of keys and twenty-two stops, and will cost $2,500." -- from an announcement that the new organ had arrived yesterday and was "being put up this week" from Reading Times (Reading, Pennsylvania) · 17 Jun 1869, Thu · Page 4 -- see docs tab for clipping
