NOTES
The organ is placed in a recessed chamber on the left side of the sanctuary
at the front. The console is placed opposite the chamber with the organist
facing the chamber across the chancel - the congregation to the left.

The Swell 8' Vox Humana and 8' Aeoline appear to have been added as an
afterthought, but before the organ was delivered to the church. Ventil
switching for the stops is placed in unusual places in the chamber, and
the Aeoline in particular is on a unit chest. Had it been planned origi-
nally, it would have been on the primary action chest. The Swell 8' Trumpet
is harmonic, and the top seven pipes of the 2' Flautino extension break
back to 4' pitch.
