NOTES
This organ was originally built for House of the Good Shepherd in Spokane. Cost was
$6,000.00. In 1960 it was moved to the Askegaard residence in Pasco, WA. In November,
1964, it was sold to Sacred Heart, and was installed there by Balcom and Vaughan for
$4,500.00.  The chimes are on a pneumatic action.  The first 7 notes of the 8' Sali-
cional are borrowed from the Gedeckt. The top octave of both the Great 4' Dulcet and
the Swell 4' Vox Humana Vox Humana repeats.
