13built about 1896. It has 3 manuals, 36 speaking stops—[address hidden], [address hidden], [address hidden] and [address hidden]. The Great Organ is particularly well voiced. It may be of interest to note that, due to the architecture of the church, the organ is located as the great French organ builder, A. Cavaillé-Coll, advised, near the centre of the church. That was unusual around Boston when this organ was built.
