It is one of three of this model still known to exist. The other two are in museums in Germany and Japan. One of the others was intended for the Titanic and the builder, Mr. Welte, was to accompany it on the maiden voyage, however the organ wasn't done in time so both the organ and Mr. Welte luckily missed that fateful voyage.

War Eagle Mill
Floating down the War Eagle River in Northwest Arkansas in 1832, the first white visitors - 2 bear hunters - were observed in the valley. Today, as the weathered three-story structure comes into view, the smell of fresh ground cornmeal still forms an unending link to our past.
The splash of an 18-foot waterwheel adds to the melody of the river. Inside, the mill stones grind cornmeal daily from organically grown grain.
