I am still drilling at a well for oil, that
was commcnoed In February 1872, and am
now to tbe depth of 1917 feet.' It is located
on Blyson Run, Millcreek township, Clarion
couoty, Pa., aod was located by me, by and
through "Spirit IoQuence," (the same as
my Qrst well at Pleasantville, which was
tbe opening of that territory,) and has been
conducted throughout by spirit direction;
and I am confident, will result in tbe open?
ing of another new territory, more lasting
in Hs production tban aoy yet known.
Notwithstanding (be great depth, I have
never wavered in my faith and confidence
as to tbe result.
Yours, o., A. James.
