/aOil Well8feet Square!
THE DEMAND for the strange new Oil that the salt-wells at Tarentum and Pittsburgh were producing led to an extraordinary attempt to fathom the petroleum basin by digging to the Oil-bearing rock. In 1856 the Donnelly salt-well was reamed out by Louis Peterson and produced 5 barrels of petroleum a day. A specimen sent to Baltimore was used successfully in oiling wool at the carding-mills and the total production was shipped to that city for eight years, ijln 1864 The Tarentum Salt and Oil Co. decided to dig a shaft 400 to 500 feet deep down to the source of supply. The officers of the company argued that with pick and shovel they could discover an enormous cave of brine and Oil! They sent to England for skilled miners and started a shaft about 8 feet square! |
