This Company owns in fee simple seven.
ty-seven and three-tenths acres on the East
side of the Allegheny River, in Rockland
township, Venango County, Pennsylvania
Ii is situated five miles below the town oi
Franklin, opposite the mouth of the West
Sandy Creek, and has frontage of ITO rods
on the river. 1t is but short distance be-
low the celebrated Hoover well which is
yielding 200 barrels of oil daily. Other
yielding wells surround it in every direction,
and within the past few weeks two new
wells have been struck in the immediate
neighborhood, one of which is producing dali
ly 80 barrels of heavy lubricating oil worth
at the well $50 per barrel.
A fine vien of Bituminous coal, easily ac-
cessible, is on part of the land, and in view
of the enormously high price of coal in that
region, is an important consideration, and
will enable the company not only to supply
its own wants in that respect, but to derive
an income from its sale to others.
The adjoining properties are in the hands
of good and prosperous companies, all in sue
cessful operation, and it is believed that no
oil company has started out with better
prospects for paying large and regular month
ly dividends.
This Company intend developing their land
without the least delay, and for this purpose
have arranged for the necessary engines,
tools, tubing, &C., all of which will be put
upon the ground and in operation as soon as
the season will permit.
In addition to their own wells, the CON-
pany also propose to lease to responsible par
ties portions of their land divided into lots of
10 square rods each, at rent of one half
the oil, the Company to be at no expense
whateuer. They will have at least fifty
such lots to lease, all of which can be leased
at once if deemed expedient, with covenants
binding lessees to sink wells with all possi-
Bile despatch to the depth of five hundred or
more feet. Estimating, only one well to
each lot, fifty wells, at-the very moderate
average of ten barrels each, would make a
daily product Of 500 barrels. Of this the
Company's share would be $50 barrels.
Value of daily yield to the Company at
$50 per Barrel, $500.
Allowing $50 working days to the year, the
Company's annual net receipts from leases
alone would be 81, 1873, 900.
The Company also intend sinking on their
own account, at least five wells. Should
they be successful with only one, it would
produce, estimating as above, yearly in
come of 8 $4,000
