NOTES
The organ is free-standing in a case of white oak with an attached and projecting keydesk. The
5-sectional façade has 37 pipes arranged: 6-10-5-10-6.

Stops marked with an asterisk (*) indicate stops whose compass is divided between middle c and
middle c# (24 notes/36 notes). The position of the drawknob determines what is playing.  The
Pedal 16' Subbass is a mechanical extension of the Manual 8' Gedackt. These 12 pipes are outside
the case at the rear.

According to undated photos on the OHS Database, the original III Mixture has been replaced with
a III Cornet.
