Four Months' Job of Tool Fishing Completed
The Shaffner Oil company secured the last string of tools from a well on the Fisher farm in the Hoffman field after four months of fishing. The well started in late July, tools were lost at 1,300 feet, and drilling resumed after the tools were recovered on Saturday morning. Rae & Johnson report a new gusher in the Petersville district on the Brenneman farm near the Bisler well, with the sand pay struck and the well filling rapidly. The boiler will be moved and drilling to resume, with expectations of a heavy producer and some gas in the output.
