NOTES
This organ was originally built for the First Presbyterian Church of Jacksonville, IL.
It was advertised for sale in the March 4, 1985 (Vol. 50, No. 5) issue of Monday Morning
magazine published by the Presbyterian Church for ministers and church personnel. The
negotiable sale price was $ 15,000.00.
The organ was acquired by Community Presbyterian church in Wapato and was installed there
by Harold B. Curryer in 1985. It was dedicated on April 13, 1986 by John French.
Gt. 8' Diapason knob was originally the Gt. Tremolo. The Sw. 4' Hautbois is an Orchestral
Oboe. The chimes are Peterson. Stops marked with an asterisk (*) are not Möller. Some chests
are not Möller. The Swell 8' Viole Celeste automatically draws the 8' Viole d'Gambe.
