NOTES
The organ was originally built for Trinity memorial Church in Warren,
Pennsylvania. It was moved here to Central Lutheran Church in Yakima,
Washington in 1960 by Otto Schoenstein, and installed without tonal
or mechanical changes in that church's rear gallery over a nine week
period beginning in June.
The preceding stoplist was taken from the console after 1984 tonal
changes; as well as from the unaltered console junction and the wind-
chest stop pneumatics. The organ had evidently been prepared for a
future Echo division which was never added in Warren, PA.
