DRAKE, in 1856, was forced to resign as conductor on the New York & New Haven Railroad because of ill health. Eagerly accepting an opportunity to work in the open, he took his family to Titusville, Pa., in 1857, with orders to bore an artesian well for Oil. The president of his com- ?any began writing to him as "Col." Drake to increase the latter's importance in itusville, and the name clung to him. C| Drake started happily, but as time went by and his funds grew lower drilling became increasingly difficult. Finally, Saturday afternoon August 28th, 1859, the well had been drilled to a depth of 69 feet, and the workmen "laid off' till Monday. Sunday afternoon Uncle Billy Smith, one of Drake's companions, visited the well, and to his amazement he found Oil rising in it. Next day the well began pumping 20 barrels a day, and the news flew around the world. The first well bored intentionally for Oil had been a success! From that hole in the ground has grown a mighty industry—the Oil Trade. Oil has been perfected and adapted in a thousand different ways, but in no way are its blessings more apparent than in The Red C Oil and The White C Oil, same except in color, the truly fine Kerosene for your Lamps, Stoves and Incubators.
