The five lowest notes in the pedal repeat the upper five (12 pipes only).


Database Manager on April 7th, 2005:

Identified through information in the Pilcher factory ledgers and a handwritten list of organs and notes on the firm's history. For more information see the document referenced below. In the first lists, this organ was originally assigned number 5. The number 26 was assigned in the revised opus numbering to the instrument in its new home in Lafayette.


Database Manager on April 7th, 2005:

The organ was sold to St. John's Episcopal, Lafayette, IN c. 1856, when the church purchased old Op. 33 (no new opus number assigned) in January 1859 and new opus number 56 in June 1859.


Database Manager on April 7th, 2005:

The church building was sold in 1856, and land purchased for a new building at the southwest corner of Olive and 17th.
