De canadese orgelmaker Létourneau leverde in 2004 een geheel nieuw orgel voor de kapel van Selwyn College in Cambridge. In de kapel was sinds 1990 een orgel aanwezig van E.J. Johnson, dat materiaal bevatte van Holdich uit 1845. Dit orgel was in 1994 voltooid door Peter Collins. In 2004 is het instrument gedemonteerd en overgebracht naar Belfast. Er zijn plannen om het in een College Chapel in deze stad te plaatsen.
