Welcome!
Speaking of coal, our people here are
waking up to the belief that Hartford
is underlaid with coal of splendid quail
" and immense quantities at no great
depth This has been brought about by
the O'Tool discovery, which you must
recollect was not on the bluff at O'Toors
for that has been discovered and mined
in a small way for several wears. but Mr..
Brogan informs us that Mr. OTIS four
foot vein of coal is below the bluff and on
the bottom land. Such being the case.
there can be no doubt that mass of coal
extends beneath all that stretch of coun-
try two miles down to and under Hart
ford, as IT is mostly low land slopeing
but slightly 10 the southwest. Now. as
coal is being mined six miles south of
town il is argued mot without reason)
that we have it here. A company is al
ready organizing to sink shaft and de
termine the truth of this theory II.
