Notes

2007-05-15 - Identified through on-line information from Robert B. Colasacco. -- The organ is no longer in use, the console has been removed from the auditorium. I got the above information from Table 5, titled "Accounting of Costs of Building and Furnishing Morris High School" in a publication written for the Centennial celebration of Morris HS in June 2004. It lists the price of the organ as $6,925.00. I remember the organ has four divisions, bottom to top; Pedal, Choir, Great, Swell. But I do not remember the exact list of stops, and I am sorry I never wrote it down. There is also another listing for the organ on that table which is "Alterations for organ, William Werner, $1,364.00" and above that possibly organ related, "Electric pump, Frederick Pearce, $715.00" -Database Manager
