NOTES
The exact nomenclature of stops and controls is not docuemnted nor verifiable. The
preceding specification was taken from the files of Balcom and Vaughan. The organ
was electrified by Balcom and Vaughan of Seattle, Washington in 1945 with one added
Pedal stop and an almost full complement of intra-manual and inter-divisional couplers.
The entire Pedal 16' Bourdon played on soft wind as the 6' Lieblich Gedeckt.
The organ was moved from this original edifice to the new edifice on Colby Ave. in
1963 by Del Fely and John Tomothy Flint doing business as Northwest Organ Service.
