Organ of the Month

Organ Pipes and Console of St. Andrew's United Church, Hepworth , Ontario

The organ at St. Andrew's United Church in Hepworth is a one-manual Lye tracker organ that was donated to the church in 1950 by George Zeigler of Waterloo.  The organ was installed by H. P. Kitt at a price of $330, while the alterations to the organ-blower cost $101.50. 

The organ still has the original hand-pumping mechanism with a mechanical gauge indicating the pressure level on the back, right side of the organ case. The pressure guage still works, but now it shows the pressure level powered with an electric blower.

The entire organ is under expression; however, the shutters are horizontal instead of vertical as seen in the picture of the pipework.
