NOTES
The organ is installed in a chamber at the front of this Akron plan sanctuary.
The center façade contain 29 pipes including notes 1-12 of the Great 8' Diapason.
The left-side façade which faces the choir gallery contains __ pipes which are
all dummies. The console was placed adjacent to the choir loft facade for access
to air from the chamber. In 1946, memorial chimes were added. In 1949, a memorial
non-enclosed 8' Aeoline was added. In 1982, the organ as modernized and enlarged
by Balcom and Vaughan of Seattle. The original Great 8' Melodia and Swell 8' Vox
Humana were displaced in this work, but are stored within the chamber.
