Exceptional Bargains. Second and prone AN Jazze Son Yéllowstone Perhaps never again will I have the occasion to send a mes~ sage to the investors of America through the columns of The Casper Daily Tribune. Our Holt No. 1 well on 400 acres in the southeast extension of the Mexia field is drilling today at 2980 feet, not over a few yards above the oil freighted Woodbine sand. In this my last call to the readers of The Casper Daily Trib- une I wish to emphasize three facts, viz: No. 1—A gusher on 400 acres in an extension of the Mexia field will mean hundreds of thousands of dollars to those who have joined Dr. Hoover and myself in this enterprise. No. 2—With the well within a few feet of completion. it is im- perative that eleventh-hour laggards speed up their reservations and subscriptions if they expect to participate in this fortune- bound project. No. 3—In response to numerous requests from stockholders who desire to increase their subscriptions, and from prospective investors, who wish to get in, Dr. Hoover and myself have de- cided to extend the “deadline date” on subscriptions at par, 10c, from April 25th, as first announced, to May Ist Remember, now, May Ist is the last day you can join us on the ground floor basis and buy units in the Mexia Extension Syndicate at par, 10c. On and after May 1st the units that are now available at 10c will advance to 15c—an increase of 50 per cent. However, between now and May 1st it is very probable that our well No. 1 on 400 acres in the southeast extension of the Mexia field will be completed a gusher, and in that event Dr. Hoover and myself reserve the right to withdraw from sale any re- maining unsubscribed units. I say, I expect a gusher before May 1st, and I am not alone in this belief —the “lease hounds” of the big com- anies have haunted our well for weeks, which to my mind is proof con- clusive that the entire oil fraternity expects me to bring in a big well on the Holt farm. Southwest of us our neighbors are ~ setting casing in the Roscoe Cook well, at a depth of 3000 feet. These shrewd operators wouldn’t put several thousand dollars’ worth of casing in a hole unless they believed they were going to get a gusher. I am fearful lest the distinction of bringing in the discovery well in the southeast extension will go to the folks drilling on the Roscoe Cook farm, but I will smother my ambitions for glory and rest content with the pros- pects of bringing in a big well on a big lease and cutting a big melon. 2) Mexia Extension Syndicate $75,000 Capital Par Value 10c Units Fully Paid and Non-Assessable Dr. M. W. Hoover Charley Anderson Trustees Dan Waggoner Bldg. Fort Worth, Texas LAST CALL It’s all over but the cheering. PAGE SEVER The stage is set for the last act of a great industrial development drama. I am entering upon the last lap ofa spirited dash for millions. When our Well No. 1 on 400 acres in the southeast extension is completed a gusher -the well and lease will be sold quickly to the highest bidder and I am certain there will be many’ bid- ders for this lease. Dr. Hoover and myself have pledged our words of honor that we will sell the properties immediately upon the completion of the well. We are not oil operators in the sense that the term is often used—we are out to drill a big well on a big lease, sell it quickly, split the pro- ceeds and profits without delay. Our books are closing. But few units in this syndicate remain unsold. In this my last message to you I must impress you with the necessity for prompt decision and early action. Don’t trust the mails now—hit the wires—telegraph at our expense— make your reservation. Mail your remittance. Reservations received after well No. 1 is completed a gusher will not be accepted, and I must reserve the right to return all oversubscriptions. May I hear from you at once? Very truly yours, L. Anderson. Mexia Extension Syndicate, Dan Waggoner Bldg., Fort Worth, Texas. Gentlemen: Enclosed pleage find $_-- as full payment for___.-..___.. —units in your Syndicate at Ten Cents (10¢) par Value.
