SISTERSVILLE. October 19.-There
IS considerable excitement In oil circles
at present over the prospect OF an ex-
tension of the old Sistersvilie field on
the west, which has developed within
the past couple of weeks, and those
who have territory in that direction are
feeling jubilant A short time ago Al
ford & Co. drilled in a test well on the
Robert Amos farm in Grandview town
ship, Washington county, O.. FIVE miles
directly west of this city. on MIL creek.
The territory in this section had been
condemned several years ago by num-
Der of dry holes which had been drilled
across the front of the old Sistersville
field and when Afford started his well
he was thought to be a little OFF. but
when the we'll was drilled in and start
ed off at about 300 barrels of salt wa
ter and 80 barrels Of oil day, opinion
changed, and there was a rush to get a
slice of the good thing he had developed,
but all the territory had been picked Up.
The formations in the well drilled by
Afford are exactly the same as those IN
this field, and the fact that so much
salt water is found confirmed the the
ory that there is a connection between
the two There will be quite g lot of
work done out there during the next
thirty days. Captain Peter Craze. the
well-known wildcatter of Pittsburg, has
quite a large amount of territory out
there. and he has already started well
on the A. Williamson farm, 1000 feet
10 the west and has the rig almost
completed. 1t is expected spudding will
be started next week. The Fisher Oil
Company started a spud a couple of
weeks ago at their No. / OF the Eddy,
and are now drilling at about 300 feet.
Afford & Co. have made the location
for No. . on the Amos. 1000 feet 20 the
