Cased at 461. The 3d SS. was full of smallpebbles near its top, but became fine, white and sharptoward the bottom. Oil was struck near the top of thissand. The well was tubed and pumped for four months,producing eight barrels per day of good lively oil. Thetubing was then drawn and the drill run down to the 4thSS., which was found at 1,538. A powerful vein of gaswas encountered here, the rig caught fire and burned down,and as there is no oil with the gas the well is now onlyused as a gas well, supplying fuel to 15 or 20 boilers in theneighborhood. 172 V.
