1. GC: You will have before you the well being drilled in Smith County, Texas, one and one-quarter miles southwest of Winona, on the McClung tract; now being promoted by Herbert M. Ogg, and in which [2091] is interested. If possible, please advise procedure. What are the prospects on going a little deeper?
2. EC: Yes - Yes - we have the operations here - Smith County, one and one-quarter miles southwest of Winona, on McClung property.
3. As we have indicated, most of Smith County has areas in which oil in paying quantities MAY be produced.
4. These present operations we find a bit off of structure, yet by going deep enough production may be obtained here that would drain a great deal of territory.
5. That to the east and to the northeast would have been more favorable. But until those sands are reached in which there is the production in the deeper territory in this area, we would not give up hope.
6. (Q) Approximately how much deeper should they go to reach this sand? (A) Until they reach the sand that produces in this area in the deeper levels, see? Here it may require to fifty-six hundred (5600).
7. (Q) Approximately how far from this present operation is the location that would be better? (A) About four and one-half to five miles east.
8. (Q) Any further advice? (A) We would not give up until reaching these sands, though its off structure - to the west of structure.
9. We are through for the present.
