* ranks utilizing pipework from the previous organ (according to contract)
** unenclosed ranks

General Note--- the original contract specified an Aeoline in the Swell
Instead of the Cornopean; this is scratched out and Cornopean written in.
Curiously, the stopkey for the Cornopean is placed where the Aeoline would 
have gone, between the Vox Celeste and the Flute Harmonic.
