Time of Reading 4:45 to 4:55 P. M. Eastern Standard Time.

1. HLC: You will have before you the entities, the enquiring minds of Mrs. [2174], Mr. [2091], and Dr. [2246] present in this room, who are confronted with the situation which has arisen relative to the oil well which was drilled on the Carmerson Plantation, midway between Big Sandy in Upshur County and Winona in Smith County, according to information given through this channel. You will give at this time any information and explanation which will be helpful to them; answering the questions, as I ask them:

2. EC: Yes, we have the problems and the conditions as confront these entities, regarding operations in search for oil on Carmerson Corporation holdings. These we have had before.

3. As we find, there is production of oil - and gas - on these holdings.

4. The properties in the present we would hold, sufficient that as productions are brought in closer to the holdings there may be the disposal of portions of same and still have sufficient for operating themselves, if it is so desired.

5. As to manners and means of increasing interest in the holdings, little materially - as we find - may be accomplished in the present - other than remaining in that attitude of mind that this will prove eventually to be of such value as to be worthy of considering such in the present.

6. As to information respecting the unusual natures in the cuttings in a portion of the present hole - this as we find has values as a constructive element in the preparation of metals. It has destructive values in the preparation of explosives that might become a force to be reckoned with, if it is necessary under extreme circumstance.

7. Ready for questions.

8. (Q) What should be done now with this special coring, from 3838 from the present hole? (A) Have same tested for these two values indicated, and then determine as to which would be the better proposition.

9. (Q) How should it be tested, and what should it be tested for? (A) As just indicated, in its value as a cohesive agent in preparation of metals, and as to its value in the preparation of destructive materials.

10. (Q) Who could do this testing? (A) One capable of doing so!

11. (Q) Can information be given at this time regarding the seeming inaccuracies in previous information regarding the production in the present hole? Please explain as fully as possible. (A) As has been indicated, there is production here, even in the hole drilled; and there needs be only the waiting for those developments to prove same. COME! HARKEN YE CHILDREN OF MEN! BOW THINE HEADS, YE SONS OF MEN! FOR I, MICHAEL, WOULD SPEAK WITH THEE CONCERNING THOSE THINGS YE QUESTION HERE! HAVE YE NOT SEEN AND HEARD - UPON THE COURSE THAT IS PURSUED IN THE SEARCH THROUGH THIS MAN FOR KNOWLEDGE - IN SUCH YE DEVIATE AT THAT DEVELOPMENT OF MATERIALITY IN MAN'S SEARCH FOR GOD?

12. We are through for the present. Copy to Dr. [2246] " " Mr. [2091] " " Mrs. [2174]
