In attempting to draw ihe casing
at the Thomas well last Sunday, the
entire rig was torn down. This is

w eckt d in pulling ca-ingon account
ot it* poor cousti action.
Muia nee, and the farmers who
leased to these people in good faith
have had a package handttl to them
in this deal. It is bi rd to undeistaiid
why a bm ch of n eu will spend as
much money in daiiling a well that
pioved to be as good as ihi* one i*,
then deliberately tiy to ruin it. There
is this to say abont it, it looks very
much like a sell out to the peoj )
around here. People who claim to
know about the we I are satisfied
that it is good for about 100 burn Is

was sh >t with the int* ntiou 10 spoil

takedown tlie forfeit money without
doing at y more work on the well is
evidence enough that they were giv-
ing tlie people a raw deal.
