The instrument is unaltered except for lights over the keyboard and on the sides
of the case, and is still in its original location in the gallery of the small
stone church building. Wind is supplied by the original hand pump. The facade is
dummy pipes in a rather plain three sided walnut "prickly Gothic" case, with
hinged doors which close off the keydesk. All pipes are enclosed with the
exception of the Pedal Sub Bass. The Flute a Chiminée, Hautboy, and Dulciana
stopknobs are original; all the others have disappeared.  The instrument was
restored ca.1975 by Richard Hamar, and will receive further work before the
convention in summer 1997 from William Czelusniak of Czelusniak et Dugall, of
Northampton, MA.

The church is a small stone building built in 1836, with a pine barrel vaulted
ceiling and elaborate stencilling on the walls. As there is no heat, the church
meets here only in summer, using another buildng in winter.
