From the June 7, 1962 edition of The Wayne Herald:

First Baptist Church Ends Six Year Quest for Organ

The First Baptist Church, Wayne, installed an electric organ Monday, climaxing nearly six years of planning.

The organ has been almost entirely paid for with memorial contributions, representing to the present congregation, the love and respect for many former members and friends of the church.

A dedication service willl be held at 7:30 p.m. Sunday with Merle Ring, Wakefield, as guest organist.

Arrangements for the purchase and dedication of the instrument were planned by the organ committee of Mrs. W. C. Swanson, W. S. Bressler, Mrs. Wallace Hughes and Mrs. Edith Childs.
