Our well No. 1 on 400 acres in the southeast extension of the Mexia field is rapidly approaching the pay level. The last few days have been particularly encouraging. Not only has the drilling of our well No. 1 progressed satisfac- torily, but cur financing has kept pace with the rapid progress of our drill. As these lines are written the bit of our giant rotary is spin- ning just 2839 feet below the surface of Limestone County. It is fascinating indeed to observe the wonders of geology. Those learned men who worked out the geological details of our 400-acre lease in the southeast extension did their work well. They anticipated within just a few feet, the spot where I would touch characteristic formations—their geology is almost letter perfect. Whilé I have not at any time doubted their prophecy that we would encounter the oil saturated Woodbine sand at around 3100 feet, I allowed them more latitude in my calculations than was necessary. I would not be at all surprised now if I struck the oil sand in from five to ten. feet above or below the depth they estimated. Truly, the mind of man knows no bounds. 2839 feet, and all’s well. Our ftnancing is practically completed — the few remaining unsold units in the syndicate will be withdrawn when well No. 1 is completed a gusher. On April 25th units will advance 50 per cent. Satisfactory developments and the now almost certain pros- pects of getting gusher production in our well No. 1 on 400 acres in the southeast extension demand this advance. To’ SOON On April 25th units advance to 15 cents each. A gusher on 400 acres in an un- proven extension of a wonder field like Mexia will mean hundreds of thousands of dollars for this syndicate. With our small capitalization, of but $75,000, you can readily figure what this will mean to all of us, Dr. Hoover and myself have pledged ourselves to an early comple- tion of well No. 1—then a quick sale of the well and lease and a prompt disbursement of the profits. Those who have read my an- nouncements from week to week know that every one of my.predictions have come true so far—every promise has been kept—every pledge performed. The finish is in sight now—I am en- tering what is perhaps the last lap of my race with the forces of nature—it seems I cannot fail. I must predict again—Within two weeks our well No. 1 will rest on the caprock just above a veritable ocean of oil—within thirty days well No. 1 will be completed a gusher and the well and lease will have been sold for at least a half a million dollars— these are my predictions. Will you be with us when these things happen? Will you be with us when our gush- er roars? Will you be with us on April 25th when units advance from 10 to 15 cents—a jump of 50 per cent? Will you be numbered among us on melon-cutting day? The decision rests with you—al] I can do now is to urge you to act im- mediately. The mails may not reach me in time —you need the wires now. Very truly yours. L. Anderson. eevececsooncccceses Mexia Extension Syndicate, Cc T. 4.11.33 Dan Waggoner Bidg., Fort Worth, Texas. It’s the same old story, as the drill goes down, units must go up. It is possible that well No. 1 on 400 acres in the southeast extension wil be completed a booming gusher before April 25th. In that event the sale of units will stop right there. However, the last few hundred feet of drilling are necessarily tedious. I must proceed with the utmost care, because our well No. 1 is cf more than ordinary consequence, in that its suc- cessful completion would open up to mankind a wondrous new oil field. So I say I will proceed carefully— Tl “feel my: way” down ‘till once the bit spins on the cap rock. To accomplish these things may re- quire a couple or three weeks but re- gardless of this, units must and will advance 50 per cent on April 25th, or be withdrawn from sale entirely should well No. 1 be completed be- fore that date. Those who join us now will not only be assure? of participating in a tre- mendous winning when well No. 1 comes in a gusher, but in addition the units that are available today at 10 cents each will be worth half as much again at midnight April 25th. = Mexia Extension Syndicate Gentlemen: Enclosed please find $_... $75, Capital Par Value 10c as fal] payment for... | __units in eo Units Fully Paid and.
