* These were the stops the Chimes had after the conversion to electro-pneumatic action. Kimball had installed this Chime action in the Deere-Winman house at about the same year in its tubular pneumatic version. As a result I feel that these are correct.

** These are the couplers that Kimball was using in this era. Since the conversion console had/has the standard full complement of couplers for a 2-manual/Pedal organ I have only listed what I believe to be the original couplers.
