*Pipework from 1888 Schuelke

The console was replace sometime in the 50's (?). The Flauto Traverso 4' in
the Swell was replaced by a 8' Vox Humana at an unknown time.  (This will be
replaced by experienced pipework;  the organ is presently (1997) being re-
leathered by Peters, Weiland.  The Great 8' Dulciana will be replaced with a
2' Octav, with the pipes being placed in proper storage.) Also a 4' Octav
will be added to the Pedal, at the instance of the very Lutheran organist.

The manual compasses are CC to c5; the Pedal CCC to f.

The Second Open Diapason in the Great still has the original diapering. The
organ is divided, with the Great on the right side of the gallery, and the
Swell and Pedal on the left. Console detached.
