1. GC: You will tell us the conditions of operations at the present time, and give information as to how they may proceed to make a success of these operations. You will also answer any questions I may ask you regarding these operations.
2. EC: Yes, we have the operations here. This we have had before.
3. Now, we find the way and manner in which the success of these operations may be brought about would be in this manner: In the setting of the casing to shut off the cavings (which continue in part), and to prevent the water giving trouble, and also the casing and pump as is seen in the hole.
4. The pump, as we find, is to the side and almost straight. The casing piece being to the upper strata somewhat - that is, from the pump base, see? and Northeast, Southwest, in the hole, lying crosswise, see?
5. In the manner, then, would this be prepared - lowering casing to within the reasonable distance of the bottom, see? suspending same with the spider, and running tool or sinker to know that same is clear. There will be about a hundred and forty-five (145) cubit feet of the cement to be set so as to prevent troubles from the water, and from the casing and pump causing trouble, when drilled through. When casing is set, or suspended, swab hole sufficient to remove water. Then pour cement in (by dumping) and allow to stand for thirty to thirty-six (30 to 36) hours. Then drill, for there will be less than thirty-one (31) feet to make from the bottom of the hole for production to be reached, making then, as is seen, about a hundred and three (103) feet to be drilled after casing is set, and cement in same, and ready for the drilling. Do that. Ready for questions. This, as we see, would insure the success of the operations. Little, if any, trouble will be encountered by the casing and pump as is in hole, should this mode be followed, depending, of course, upon how dumping of cement and certis (?) acts upon

the casing in hole as same is dumped, but, as to the PRESENT condition, and as to the condition as we would see from pulling off water would bring, there should be no trouble with this. Just prepare as given - drill in.
6. (Q) How big in diameter, in depth, is - (A) (Interrupting) Why do we have diameter and depth? Know the square foot! This we have given, see? Know that to be covered!
7. GC: That is all the questions.
8. EC: Divide the number of square feet by 3.116 (?), and we will find the number in the diameter. Multiply this by the half of the square root of this, and we will have the depth.
9. GC: Of the caved section below the 5900 feet?
10. EC: There has been given the amount of space to be covered! DO IT!
11. We are through.
