Our relations——at all times—-were on{ the highest plane—as must be where} friendship is re But while Im de many friends in the old days I didn’t make much money. Once I fell down a mine shaft and broke both legs. 1 wa laid up for a long time. I began to study law by mgself. I recalled how 1 used to dream of growing up to be a lawyer, while I was at school in Fond du L y the time that my bones were ‘jonistoreadmibiance I practiced for a or more but the urge to go prosp So I went “k and kept at it without much more luck than before, Finally I decided to change Angeles. here my luck changed. One day in Los Angeles I saw a teamster drive by with a load of substance that looked like the . ore | used to get at Silver i. M. I jumped on the brakt. i ‘oduct more ked the driver what it id “Bree: Spanish term for pitch ation of oil. Reasoning} e to effect—the whole se-| from ca cret! of “nose for oil"—I decided that there must be oil where this “breer” came from, Fer this sub- stance is to oil in the ground what/ resin is to the sap of a tree. I knew this from the experienee I had gained from digging for other mineral; and from books on oi! that I had been reading, recently. So 1/ went out to Westlake Park, where| the driver said he found the stuff,| and looked around. It looked like oil, al) right, but land in that part of towg was expensive. So I traced its} rum and found a similar surface about a mile away. Then 1 went to Charlie Canfield, with whom I had prospected before, and asked him for his views. 1 was ‘on the point of going to Phoenix’ to} open a law office, and didn’t want to| lose any more time on idle prospect- | ing. But the urge was too great. We! decided to go to it again. | Wf ought the corner lot from a, grocer, whom Wwe paid on the install-| ment plan, and set to work—digging for oil, just as we had dug for gold and silver, i The place was in a swamp drea and | we were not disturbed by idle on- lgokers. At 150 feet we found some oil; at 225 feet’ we struck a gusher. Nearly every event which marked | an epoch in my life occurred on Nov. 4th or 6th. My son was born on Nov. 5th. I diseovered Kingston, N. M., on} Nov, 4th, 1880. And I made the discovery of my first ofl on Nov. 5th, 1892! It augured well. In 18 months we made $1,415,000 in the Los Angeles field. We went into other areas—Fuller- ton, aie River Valley. Others went, too. je great oil scramble was on.
