NOTES
The organ was originally installed at the front of the church, but
was later moved to its present location in the rear, right corner.
The original blower was installed inside the case, but has since been
replaced. The organ had been left on, and a parishioner just happened
to stop-by the church to find it filled with smoke. The new blower is
installed in the basement.

The Mayland chimes were a memorial gift in 1956. It is installed inside
the organ case and is controlled by the On/Off/Volume control at the
console.
