2011-10-09 - Identified through online information from Peter Gonciarz. -- - The existing console for this instrument is an amphitheater console (Cavaillé-Coll style). As mentioned above, there are general and divisional pistons, but the combination action was never installed. The General Cancel piston does not work either. -Database Manager

2012-11-29 - Updated through online information from Donald Jenczka. -- The great 8' principal is unified with the great 2' principal. The great 8' flute is unified with the 4' flute. the 8',4', 2' principals were moved to the facade mid-70's, and the III mixture added. Carl Stradtman replaced the original console in the 80's but never completed the job. I took the original Tellers-Kent console home because it looked cool. It no longer exists; my parents got tired of having an organ console in their basement. -Database Manager
