A 3,091,000 cubic foot gas well, one of Raleigh county's largest, was brought in yesterday on Tommy's Creek property leased to the Godfrey L. Cabot company via Piney Coking Coal Land. The 3,420 foot well, in the Weir sand, took 90 days with four men working. Contractor Charlie Nichols supplied tools and materials. Transmission requires seven miles of pipe and about two months more. Lamps were in general household use in Greece by the fourth century B C.
