Their depth is about 1600 feet down to the fourth sand stratum so well known, at least by name, to those engaged in petroleum produc- tion. The Burns well it is believed has never yielded oil, but the Delameter, first carried to the third sand layer, was a petroleum well at 1600 feet ; sunk afterwards to the fourth stratum, it gave gas at such a pressure that the tools of about 1760 pounds weight might b...e withdrawn by hand.
