The total length of stemming was 5 feet 10^ inches, and the mode ofperforming the operation exactly the same as in No. 1 Hole. Thishole, however, was much shorter, being only 7 feet 8^ inches. It was alsoput in a little higher up in the seam, as shown in the Elevation. On May 14th, a 300 lbs. gauge was attached to the hole. Pressureof Gas. RESULTS.—See Table, Page 246.
