but by other indications as woil. Ten
or twelve years ago an effort was made
to develop this region, and drilling was
done to a depth of about 1000 feet, but

the sea water encountered presented q

From this abandoned well--which-

to send a volume of oil some fifty feet
into the air---comes another encouraging
indication---that is, the purpose OF the
new effort to continue drilling on this
site in the belief that by going to q
greater depth and by overcoming the
water the reservoir of oil may be
reached.
