The valuable Oil territory of this Company Is located
on the Kanawha riter, Gilmore county, lYeet Virginia,
some distance above its confluence with the Ohio at
Parkersburg (the terminus of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad), ana lies directly unon and in a direction
across the great ‘’Oil Belc° of this region (as may he
seen upon the map), in the immediate Vicinity of the
wonderful “Burning Springs, o now regarded as a
sure indication of the presence of oil, from the fact that
it 1b the oil gas that rises to the surface an&bums upon
the water.. This property consists of an area of 1,185
acres of magnificent of) and mineral lands, of which the
Company owns an undivided half interest in fee. slm-
Sle, extending IK miles on the Kanawha river, which
i navigable to the Ohio. Other streams, tributaries of
the Kanawha, traverse this tract, presenting along their
margins every surface indication of a rich yield of oil.
The Company holds the right to put down wells all over
this extensive boring surface* and oil has already been
discovered on this property, ne&T the river, at the depth
of 36 feet. The sinking oftwo wells to the depth of 800
reel, if necessary,.was provided for in the purchase of
the.land, all of which is paid for without touching the
working or reserved capital of the Company. In addi
tion to this, the Company owns to important interest
(also paid for) in a well located within 100 yards of -tike
SreatLewellynyrell, which has flowed 2,6oobarrels per'
ay, and is directly among the celebrated Rafchbone
group (see map). These are, it is said, the greatest pro
ducing wells in the country. The former owners of
this well were ft reed to abandon it on the breaking out
of the rebellion, but the Company has now made ar
rangements to reopen and tube ft, when a large yield of
oil may reasonably be expected from this source alone.
In addition to the above described properties, the Com
pany owns in fee simple some 400 acres of mineral lands
in Pennsylvania, This Company Is most fortunate in
posresiisg every facility for rapidly developing the oil*
having on its own property both timber ana coal in
great abundance, and in also, having the resident Su
perintendent of the works, Mr. T. G. Farnsworth,
largely interested as a stockholder. The manage
ment being in the hands of practical men, of indomi
able energy and perseverance* the stockholders may
reasonably expect eoon to find their shares ranking
with the best dividend-paying stocks on the market;
for, being out of debt, and having a large working
capital, the holders of stock in this Company take no
risk of bring called upon for additional means to cany
on the operations of the Company, but on the contrary,
as soon as oil shall be obtained in sufficient quantities,
a dividend on the capital stock will be declared. The
remaining portion of the 30,000 shares reserved stock
only is now being sold for additional working Capital*
at the subscription price of two dollars per share. It

Immediately in the Great Oil Break, extending from
Burning Spring through by Standing-Stone and Petro*

was first discovered in 1790,
