It seems a shame to not use them.  Also, the rolls should be preserved
for the same reasons that old piano rolls are kept.

Is there any chance that the church would be interested in selling
the whole system, including the chimes and roll mechanism?   It would
be nice to preserve the roll-player as well.  It is as much history as
are the rolls!
