JEFFERSONVILLE, Ind. (AP) - A southern Indiana church is auctioning off sheet music that songwriter James Taylor donated to the church for its effort to restore a pipe organ.
A charity auction website started taking bids Monday on the autographed sheet music of Taylor's song "Fire and Rain" he donated to St. Paul's Episcopal Church.
The Courier-Journal of Louisville, Ky., reports the Jeffersonville church's original 1894 pipe organ was destroyed by the Great Flood of 1937. A 1981 fire destroyed its replacement, along with the church's parish hall and damaged its sanctuary.
The Victorian-style church will use money it raises from auctioning off the sheet music and other fundraising efforts to restore a pipe organ donated to the church. That organ's installation would finish a church restoration launched three years ago.
