The property of tha Drake Petroleum Company oou--
alstt of tiro tracts of land, one of two hundred and fifty
seven acres and one of two hundred and sixty, five
acres, making In all five hundred an'd twelya aores, in
fee, on the,Caldwell Branch of 0.11 Creek. -
The property hag been critically examined by a Com
mittee appointed for that purpose, and the territory pro
nounced, In their judgment, to be folly equal to thatqu
Oil Creek, along wliloh the largest oU wells ever dis
covered have been found.
. The lands resemble those on Oil Creek in every partl
enlar,' and it is believed, from the large number of Oil
Springs in close proximity, that valuable wells will be
opened on both these tracts.
The management have already secured several en
gines, and engaged a competent Superintendent, with a
view to Immediate and energetic-development.
Alargeportlon of,these tracts is bottom, and admira
bly adapted for boring. 1
Several Companies are o’ganlzed on lands immediate
ly adjoining this territory, among whleh are the Briggs
and Crescent Oil Companies of Philadelphia.
In presenting the Drake Petroleum Company to the
pnblie, the Directors ask that their scheme should be
examined, and subscriptions made to the Stock infull
faith as to its present and prospective value.
