A little later we have a builder of the name of Broughe, who appears to have set up a new organ at St. Margaret's, Westminster, thus noticed in the churchwardens' accounts there:
"1590, payde to Mr. Broughe, for changeing of our organs for a payre of his, viijli."
An organ builder flourished at the close of the sixteenth century, who, though his name is now forgotten, seems to have been extensively employed in his day—John Chappington. He appears to have built an organ for Westminster Abbey about 1596; at least we find him in that year selling the old organ of that Collegiate Church to the churchwardens of St. Margaret's:
"Paid to Mr. Chappington for the organs of the Colledge, xiijli. xiijs. iiijd., and the old organs do remayne in the parish church, to be sold by the churchwardens."
The latter part of this entry possibly relates to the organ built by Broughe six years previously. In the following year a further payment was made "to Chappington for the organs lxvjs. viijd."
