Organs Anniversary
For so years the organ at tn
West Washington Baptist Church
has been in service. In 1883 i
was built in the Baltimore factor!
of Hilborne l.. Roosevelt, a ia
nous organ builder. According tt
the music division of the Library
of Congress, Roosevelt organs
were among the finest of tina
day. Two years after the organ
was built Mr.. Roosevelt died, a.
the age of 81.
. Between 1883 and 1901 thu
organ served the congregation o.
] the st. Thomas Episcopal Church
; until that church was enlarged
When st. Thomas decided to in
stall larger organ in their new
church, West Washington, ther
being rebuilt on account of fir
. in it's old church, obtained it.
The family relationship of Hill
borne Lewis Roosevelt to Presi
= dent Franklin D. Roosevelt is sale
to be through distant ancestors
but it is an interesting circum
stance that the organ was once
the property of the church where
the President now worships.
