Time of Reading 3:20 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. San Saba, Texas.

1. GC: You will have before you [4906] of San Saba, San Saba County, Texas, and the well being drilled on what is known as Rocky Pasture. You will tell him the conditions regarding operations, and how this should be handled to make a success of same. Then you will answer other questions regarding [4906]'s holdings in other places that I will ask you.

2. EC: Yes, we have the holdings, the operations, of this body.

3. Respecting the operation in Rocky Pasture, we find that the casing may be set (10 inch) in the eight twenty (820) level, that the shale that will be encountered in the twelve to eleven hundred (1200 to 1100) feet will necessitate other casings, as will the lime under same at the eighteen seventy-nine (1879). These, handled in this manner, will insure the large production here, in quantities as has been given. We would handle this as that:

4. The stratum in the eleven hundred ninety-eight (1198) may be taken for the small production, yet the large production will be found near the twenty-six hundred (2600) feet, see? Ready for questions.

5. (Q) Would it be well for [4906] to sell his interest in the Baird lease and put same in the San Saba operations? Or would it be better for him to drill to a deeper sand in the Baird field? Or is there a sand there? If so, at what depth? (A) Seven hundred twenty-eight (728) feet from that producing sand from which the oil is being taken. Drill to the greater depth for THIS production, while disposing of these holdings and investing in San Saba would be well, but would be unwise until the deeper production is shown, for this will be much larger production than the upper stratum.

6. (Q) At what depth will they reach production? (A) As given.

7. That is all the questions.

8. We are through for the present.
