NOTES
The organ was in chambers at the front of the room. The building was sold to Plymouth
Congregational in 1966. It is not presently known when the organ was sold/removed, nor
to whom.
The factory specification sheet indicates that the console was originally to be of oak,
but this is crossed-out and 'Walnut' is written-in. The Swell 8' Vox Humana had
it's own special reservoir. The bottom octave of the Great 16' Dbl. Open Diapason was
borrowed from the Pedal 16' Bourdon. The finger pistons were double-touch where the
first contact was for the manual stops, and the second contact was for the Pedal stops.
The factory stoplist gives no indication of general pistons, nor of a 'Set' or 'General
Cancel' piston.
A hand-written note indicates that the organ was completed by 11/5/28.
