Notes

2009-02-13 - Identified through online information from Jeff Scofield. -- Renovated and enlarged at some point; there are no nameplates of any kind on the console -Database Manager

2009-08-01 - Updated through online information from Charles Kennedy. -- Certainly it was a curiosity that the Swell contained one 8' reed and two 4' reeds, but this was actually the case. My recollection of a the stoplist as published in <i>The Diapason</i> is that it is listed correctly as a 4'. The clarification that I mention has to do with the Great Mixture. It is listed as it appeared on the console, as 4 ranks, but in fact was only two ranks, 1-1/3' + 1', straight to the top, without any break except for the top octave. It only spoke those two pitches and did not draw the 2-2/3' and 2'. -Database Manager
