One zinc bass of the Tenoroon 16', and zinc basses of the Open Diapason 8' and Principal 4' are in the case; the Dulciana 8' seems to have been softened in 1933; the Melodia pipes are marked "Clar"; the Flute 4' is a metal chimney flute from TC, with stopped wood basses. The low 12 of the Bourdon Bass are unenclosed; the Sw. Open Diapason 8' has 12 stopped wood basses; the bottom octave of the Viol de Gamba is grooved from the Stop. Diapason 8'; the Cornet II is 19-22, breaking to 12-15 at TC. The Sub Bass 16' is an open wood rank. -- from *1981 OHS Handbook* -Paul R. Marchesano
