The second home of our organ was in the First United Presbyterian
Church at 54 Wyman Street Brockton, Massachusetts. The Presbyterians
left the church in June 1990. The primarily Scottish congregation
had moved to the suburbs and there was no longer a need for the
Church to remain open. |

The sanctuary had sustained hurricane damage when a chimney
came crashing through the roof and onto the alter area. The few
remaining members had simply patched the roof and started meeting
in another room. The organ was removed shortly afterward. Armed
police guards were required when loading the organ onto the truck,
the neighborhood had become extremely dangerous. |
