It looked like oil, all right, but land in that part of town was ex- | wensive, So T traced its stratum and found a similar surface about a mile | away. | . Then I went to Charlie Canfield, with whom I liad prospected before, tand asked him for his views. I was | jon the point of golng to Phoenix to jopen a law office, and didn't want to |lose any more time on idle prospect-. {ing. But the urge was too great. We | {gecided to go to it again, We bought the corner lot from a {grocer, whom we paid on the install. | yment plan, and set to work—digging for oil, just as we had dug for gold and silver, The place was in a swamp area and we were not disturbed by idle, en- lookers, At 150 feet we found some | Iml; at 225 feet we struck a gusher, Nearly every event which marked {an epoch in my life occurred on Nov, | 4th or Sth, My #on T discovered Nov, 4th, 1880, And T made tha discovery of my first oil on Nov, Sth, 1802! | It augured well.
