ich had felt the magic touch of Mendelssohn, had 13 stops
on the Great, 7 on the Swell, 8 on the Choir and only one on the Pedal.
It stood in a case on the screen between the choir and the nave of the
Cathedral. We have noted elsewhere in this book how Willis had this
screen removed, and rebuilt the organ on each side in 1872. In 1891 it
was rebuilt in its present form as noted below. The writer first saw
and heard this organ in 1873, and never failed, on his frequent visits
to London in later years, to attend a service in St. Paul's Cathedral,
where there are two choral services daily all the year round. No
summer vacations here. The effect of the Tuba ringing up into the dome
is magnificent. Willis looked upon this organ as his _chef d' oeuvre_,
saying "There is nothing like it in the whole world!"

The Great organ is situated on the north side of the chancel. The
Swell and Choir organs are on the south side. The Solo organ and
one-third of the Pedal organ are under the first arch on the north side
of the chancel. The Altar organ, which can be played through the Solo
organ keys, is under the second arch on the north side of the chancel.
The remaining two-thirds of the Pedal organ and three Tuba stops occupy
the northeast quarter gallery in the dome. The keyboards are on the
north side of the chancel, inside the organ case, and can be seen from
the "whispering gallery." There are five manuals, CC to c|3|, 61
notes; pedals CCC to g, 32 notes.
