The Directors Of thi, Company take pleasure in
presenting to the cap tasts and the public of New
Englanda chance to invest in Petroleum stock
that offers immediate returns well future
poets of realizing an income that will amply reward
such inve tments.
The Property Of the Company Consists
1st-Of aperpetual lease of6ve end one-half acres
of and with en- Inc, fixtures and buildings being
part ofthe Miller Farm, about five miles below IT,
tusv lie, on Oil Greek, at the mouth OF Hemlock
Run.
The OIL Greek Railroad runs directly through this
property, which enhances the value Of the product
fully one dollar per barre, there ing no caring.
No finer boring rritory being found the whole
ength of Oil Greek than ON this section. On this
land there is one wsll producing sixty barrels
of Oil pet day, worth at the well twenty dollars per
barrel.
This well being mew one, we have every prospect
of Its increasing to much larger yield, as most OF
the pumping wells on the creek have done hereto
fore. For this well alone the Company are now of
fered $l76 GOO cash. We have also this track room
FOR ut least ten more wells. One well will be put
down immediately upon the arrival of the engine
and tools which the company already own.
Much better results are expected from this terri.
tory than already obtained when we shall have sunk
the other WELL as almost every well sunk in this vi
onity has be sn eminently successfnl for instance
the "Noble Well, only three miles below u.s. with
surface indications nfsriorto ours when the oil was
struck flowed two thousand barre q day for year,
and it's tortnnase possessors became millionaifes-
Now our chance Of striking asmilar deposit is reat-
~ superior being nearer the center Of the great Oh
Basin. Should well of this kind be struck, at tne
present price OF OIL it won yield an income of $780,
cooper day. or ever $4,000 COO per snnum This
would indeed be prize; and facts show that 1t is not
al chimsIical for it has been done in our neighbtr-
hood, and dc not see why our chance Is not good
or doing the same thing.
No. q Fee simple Of two hundred and sixty five
acres Of land In Oil Creek and Spring Run six
miles from Tltusville, large portion Of which is
boring territory, and from surface indications we
have every reason to believe that this will prove
equally as valuable as land below Titusville. Par
ties are sinking wells land adjoining us with very
60 isiActory results. Ass saaA -iss.
No. 8. Twenty four acres Of fats running across
the south end of Morgan Jennings farm, say two

ing at the wells for twenty five dollars per barrel;
and fromthe superior loo Of this property to-

every foot Of the territory is excellent boring land,
while its proximity to the markt renders 1t OF en-
HANGED value. i-s -4a
