The properly of this Company consists of
No 1. One hundred and twenty acres of land in fee
simple, situated on both sides of Little Sandy Creek,
three fourths of a mile from its confluence with the Big
Sandy, one mile from the town of Waterloo, and sir
miles from Franklin, the county seat of Venango coun
ty* and within half a mile of the station of. the James
town and Franklin Railroad. About one-half of the
land la heavily wooded, producing a variety of superior
timber,
The laud is designated oh the original map of Venango
county as the Dennis Job Tract; upon it are several
houces, barar, &e
This particular location, although at present unde
veloped. will, i*. is believed, prove very productive, as
upon the adjoining property a natural oil spring has
been known for more than a century.
No. 2 Forty five acres in fee simple, adjoining Tract
No 1. on Snyder Run- This Tract has been selected by
experienced oil operatives because of'its extraordinary
surface indications, and will undoubtedly prove equal
to the best oil territory in Venango county.
No S. Two leasee of one acre of land on the Graff and
Haesan Tract, on Oil .Greek, Oornplanter township, one
fourth of a mile above OU GUy. These leases are each
for seventeen yean* one-half tot ally. On this laud are
now two Wolfs, producing from ten to iweiVe barrels
per day, with Steam Engine, which is new, Tanks, and
all necessary appurtenances, House, Barn, Ac., beiong
- isg to the Company.
''From the well-known productiveness of all the land
on Oil Creek, sot a single failure havingyet beeu knowu
where proper means have bteu used to develop the re
sources of the land, and as the Company purpose sink
ing a number of new Welle on these leases, it is confi
dently expected that very important results will accrue
therefrom.
Thirty Tbourand Shares of the Capital Stock will be
devoted to the immediate development of the various
pionertiee of the Company, the Directors of which
pledge themselves to the Stockholders that nothing on
their part shall be wanting to render this one of the
most detirable investments that have yet beeu put be
fore the public. They also call attention to the follow
ing facts in regard to this Company:
let 1 hat not one dollar’s worth of Stock has been sold
beyond what was required to pay for the lands in fee
simple and the leases owned by the Company.
2d. The Company has not created a single liability;
all their purchases have been paid in full, and their ti
tles are c'e&r and indisputable to all the property r amed
,
3d. The Thirty Thousand Shares of Reserved Stock or
Working Capital will be actually sold, and the pro
ceeds devoted to the development of the property, sink
ing wells, Ac., before the Board of Direction, will-au
thorize the istue of any more Stock. ; „ _

In calling the attention of eap taltsts to this enter
prlee, the Directors have no hesitation in expressing
their belief that their return from it will be more cer
tain and more liberal than from any new company now
before the community. The property of the Company
consists of the following:
No. 1. Three-eighth sof the working interest in the
celebrated Jersey Well, on the Hyde and Egbert Farm,
on Oil Creak, with the acre of land on which the well is
located. This well has been flowing since early in
May, ISM, at the rate of about three hundred and fifty
barrels daily, and ii now flowing at that rate, thus
yielding to the Company betweenfifty and sixty barrels
daily, wortn, at present prices, twenty thousand dol
lars per mouth, which Wul pay to the Stockholders in
this Company
MORE THAN THREE PEE CENT. PER MONTH
from the start. There i< room on the land for several
more well*], two of which will be immediately com- ;
menced by the Company, and in which we shall have
the same interest as in the Jersey. The character of this
property, as oil Hr d, is well known; it is only necessa
ry to say that no well on it has ever failed in getting oU«
while it has already produced the Maple Shade, the Co
quette, and the Jersey.
. No. 2. Twenty- five acres in fee on the east side of the
Allegheny River, opposite the mouth of Big Sandy. •
Thi» tract las about forty rods front on the-river, and
contains a large amount of boring surface. Oil wells
yielding largely are found near this property; among
them the hnfrbs, the Hoover; &c. The Company intend
to proceed at once to develop this fine property, and feel
sanguine of success
No,.fik A lease of fifteen years on the ‘William B. Wil
son Farm, on Slippery Rock Run, in Lawrence eou aty,
Fenua.
Nos. 4,5, 0, 7 and 8 are also leases on Slippery Bock
Run, contains g four hundred acres in all. They were
obtained in April, 1161, by Dr. Egbert, and continue
for fifteen years from their date. They secure to the
Louse*B all the oil and other minerals contained in the
several tracts, with the right to divide and sublet, with
all other rights and privileges connected with the busi
ness of mining for oii, cob}, and other minerals, and re
serve a royalty of only one* eighth of said oil or
minerals.

further call or assessment. A working capital of
$lOO,OOO reserved. Only 20,000 Shares to be sold

The property of this Company consists of the well
known Martin or Standing Stone tract, and contains
from2.6ooto3,oCoacreßofland, in fee simple, free from
leases, undivided Interests, or royalty. Standing Stone
Creek (a-branch of the Little Kanawha river), and its
tributaries pass through this property, and it has upon
Jt a larger amount of boring territory than is owned by
any other company in Weet Virginia. It is situated Is
Wirt county, near the celebrated Rath bone or Burning
Spring tract, and in extant of territory is five times
S eater, and is considered by all experienced oil men
miliar with the oil distilcfe-- of West Virginia quite
equal, if not superior, to the Sathbone tract. The

Burning Spring through by Standing Stone ana Petro
leum to Hone Neck wells, near the Ohio river, and

The property of this Company has not been developed

was first discovered in 1790.

and oil obtained. The well of McFarland & Jones, on
the Morgan land, is near this property.
