Notes

2004-12-21 - Information identifying this instrument from the Austin Organs, Inc. web site, accessed December 20, 2004: http://www.austinorgans.com/organ-research.htm. -Database Manager

2005-11-14 - Updated through online information from Bernie Soles II. -- There are General and Divisional Thumb pistons on the respective manuals for divisional and above the upper manual for entire organ. Registers are moving. There are rest bars that span across the tops of the stop keys that turn off all stops. This is something designed by Austin Organs. The console is detached, I can't remember the year but I was told it was moved out of the gallery and now resides in the front of the chapel on the right I think that happened in the 60s or 70s. The cost was over $5,000.00 in 1914. -Database Manager
