TEXT

1. LS: You will tell us at what depth they are drilling at the present time, at what depth they will find production. You will also tell us of any conditions that they might be warned of relative to the operations at the present time. You will also tell us what the formation is, will be, to production; that is, from the point they are now drilling to production. You will answer all questions which I might ask you relative to this well.
2. EC: The present depth has been reached of 4571. In this formation we find traces of that as was given would be encountered by the change in the formation produced by the slide or fold in the earth's change here. In this same formation which shows the permeation of oil deposits, we will find the production as has been given.
3. The depth necessary then to drill into this being 51 feet. This we find will give the necessary outlet for the pressure of oil and gases to bring same to surface, and the production will be then 3500-4000 barrels per day beginning, reducing, then choking, then cleanse, then gradually increasing.
4. In this structure we find the structural portions of the slide has produced the change in operations here. There are very good conditions regarding the operations, yet the constant change, and the constant condition to be overcome as regarding the following up, as it was, has become weary to many, yet would the success come to this operation, follow the condition as given, for had this been located as given we would not have encountered these troubles, yet this may be made a producing field, and one that will bring the great demand on account of the character in the production.
5. (Q) Has the headache post been braced?
   (A) Been braced. The operations as regarding the tools, headache post, walking beam, lines, have been repaired as were given, and the conditions regarding operations are very good. Only follow. Keep the ever respected conditions as regarding the success this WILL produce if carried out.
6. (Q) How long a period of time will be necessary to drill to the depth given at which production would be reached?
   (A) From three to give days constant drilling, not allowing for changing or of conditions that might come in.
7. (Q) Are there any conditions at the present time, or will be before the production is reached, that should be warned of?
   (A) Only following those instructions as was given. The operations, the character of the formation at present is the indication for the operators as to how same should be handled. These understand.
8. We are through for the present.

REPORTS

1. 3/20/25 EC's ltr. to Mr. Wyrick:
   Mr. M. B. Wyrick, Room 308, 427 S. LaSalle St., Chicago, Ill.
   Dear Mr. Wyrick:-
   Had the wire this afternoon, so we took the reading immediately. I don't understand how it insists on keeping following it up, but I'm in hopes that this will prove satisfactory and that we will in the next four or five days have a producing well. I am sure it must be correct in one thing; that is, that the operators are growing weary of the conditions and the strain they must be under, but I can't help but believe that it will yet be a producing well. I'm sure it's trying on your nerves but I hope you're feeling good and will be able to get down to see us sometime real soon. Each week I have felt like that perhaps you would be here.
2. 3/24/25 See 4905-18, for which Mr. Wyrick was present.
