Notes: (from The Diapason, November 1919) "St. John's Episcopal Church at Stamford, Conn., considered one of the most beautiful church edifices in this country, has a large new organ built for it by the Skinner Company. The instrument was opened on the evening of Oct. 26 with a recital by William Anderson, organist and choirmaster of the church. The new organ replaces a fine old Roosevelt three-manual built thirty years ago. Mr. Skinner pronounced the organ chamber ideal and it has great height and corresponding width. The organ is on one side of the chancel and the console is placed on the opposite side. Every stop is complete and there is no borrowing except for some augmentation of pedal stops."

However, if every stop was straight, there would be 39 ranks instead of the 34 indicated in the OHS OPUS LIST.
