1. EC: Now, we have here in Mississippi, acreage of land owned by persons interested in the development of the oil fields in this part of the country. Locations made here near Columbus, Mississippi, 6-1/2 miles below we have the Billups property where we have two locations the better or the quicker and will have less trouble in drilling. The strata is excellent for the shale below before striking the oil which we will find at 1875 ft. is of the cavey or treacherous character and kind. We would make the location here close between the stream where the quick bed is made, running east suddenly, turns towards the north and west, just in this fork. Will be above the water lines close to the little clump of bushes, plum bushes, they are. There is a log lying near these. The direction is pointing northeast, southwest. Close to this we would set the range. Early bird locate this here. In the upper portions below operations are going on satisfactorily at the present time.

2. Keep on, be careful in setting up the casing as is given here. When we strike to this sand and cave, case well up and as much as possible to this so that in lowering and setting the casing through this quick gravel we will have as large a casing as practical. In following this do not drive for fear or trouble that you will have in freezing of casing in these formations as we find here in these treacherous sands and gravel.

3. (Q) What quantity of oil will they get, Mr. Cayce? (A) 300 barrels per day.

4. (Q) For how long? (A) Until drilling in other places releases gas pressure to this formation.
