I am led to believe he used it to carry everything a circuit-traveling Lutheran pastor would need for his congregations and services.  The emblem on the inside indicated it had a quite different origin.  It housed a folding pump organ.  A quick look-up on eBay showed the original instrument, and it looks kinda familiar in a way...
