Nobody oan quite explain the strange phenomenon-~ except for the fact that prospectors brought 1n an oil well on another farm, a quarter of a mile away. Mrs. Mary Swan has lived on the farm for forty-one y ears. She and her ' first husband were homesteaders/\and 1 on the farm, they dug a four hundred foot well to get water. It never was much good and twenty years ago the old water ell was given up as hopeless. The put a huge rock o n the top of it, and almost for o t it. Last week, a weird thing happened - when the st o n e on to n f the well was •z•k•• blown off by natural gas -- the pressure t ha t great. Q.ll - 2 The gas was pi ped off, and t e a oient well was ~•tt u1et once a1n, until l a t n1 ht. Thi ornin, the Sans oke up and found their house drenched 1th 11 a rain of netroleum pouring dow n on the roo f , on the barns, everyw h ere. The whole lace just soaked with oil. And there was ? the old well -- spouting black gold, a gusher. All day long, today~ e me rgency pipes were placed -- to divert the flood. So now, when the danger of explosion and fire is averte , the Swans will find everything -- all right.
