_Moveable Organs and Pulpits._--In looking over a small pamphlet,
entitled _The Temple Church, an Account of its Restoration and Repairs_,
by William Burge, Esq. (8vo. 1843, Pickering), I met with the following
passage, which serves me for a peg on which to hang a Query:
"Mr Etty justly observes that 'in St. Peter's at the present day,
the organ is a very small one comparatively to the building, and
is wheeled about, like the ancient pulpits, to different parts of
the church!'"--P. 34.
Are movable organs common in Italy or elsewhere? With regard to pulpits,
the chapel of King's College, Cambridge, has two at the present time,
placed in one of the small chapels on the north side. They are moved
into the choir when required. Besides these, the neighbouring church at
Grantchester has a large pulpit, which, tradition says, also once
belonged to the same noble edifice. Can any of your correspondents
mention other examples of churches or chapels so well supplied?
