Notes
The organ was originally built for Sacred Heart Church in Butte. When the
church was razed in 1965, the Cote family who managed the Copper King
Mansion (Senator William H. Clarke's home) purchased the organ and had it
installed in the 3rd floor ballroom of the mansion. The installation was
done by Butte native and organ enthusiast Don Stagg.
The organ is free-standing and encased, and the console is detached and
reversed. The first 17 pipes of the Great 8' Open Diapason are in the
façade which contains __ pipes.
The bottom octave of the Swell 16' Bourdon is borrowed from the Pedal 16'
Lieblich Gedeckt.
