NOTES
This is the original home of this organ. It was sold ca. 2012 to St. Bernard RC
Church in Akron, Ohio and was to have been reinstalled there, but plans changed.
The organ has been in storage in Akron ever since. It was for sale on ebay and
finally sold for $5,000.00.
On the Great, the II Sesquialtera takes the 2-2/3' pitch from the 80-pipe 8'
Bourdon unit. The 1-3/5' Tierce component is independent beginning at tenor C
and running for 43 pipes to f# 43.
On the Choir, the 8' Erzähler borrows notes 1-12 from the 8' Holz Gedeckt.
On the Pedal, the II Mixture is an extension of the 4' Choral Bass.
