Ono thousand peoplo, It la estimated
gathered at tho rig of the Crater
Oil && Gaa company near Mer
rill to witness the "spudding In" of
tho companya'' first well and follow
ing a general good time earlier In
tho clay, tho big drill was aet ' to
work boring downward for the oil
which Is believed to lie beneath In
large quantities.
Tho crowd began assembling from
all over the county as early a 8
o'clock yesterday morning and by
noon, the line of autos and other con
veyances along the road to Merrill
wu most imposing. At 2 o'clock,
the barbecued meat waa served and
tho thrto sheep and a baby beef am
ply served the guests present, Ony
Merrill aaw 'to It that everyone 'had
all they wanted. '
At 3 o'clock, the crowd gathered
about the 82 foot rig where drillers
Holstetter, Haley and MceHnrjrwere
at work hoisting the big drill Into
place and watched the process of -"spudding
tn" closely. At 4:20 p.
m., tho drill entered the ground and
waa aoon loat to sight
During tbo 'entire day, olt waa
not discussed ao much "as were the
general crop and farm condition but
the oil excitement was 'there even
though it waa kept submerged. The
fact that no wllld predictions by the
assembty'lndlcatea that a solid faith
In thla enterprise la held by the peo
ple In the Merrill region aa well aa
by the officers ot the company.
It aeema that the people who were
there felt that with fortune favor
ing the oil enterprise, and the pros
pects for the greatest crop in year,
all thai was needed to complete their
happiness and bright proapecU U the
release of aome money to -expand
their operationa, especially the
curing ot cattle to feed their sur
plus bay.
R. C. Oroeabeck delivered a
brief addreaa to the crowd and waa
warmly 'applauded for hla -efforts.
Then came the drilling operationa
and with a emoothneaa surprising to
the spectators, the Initial well ot
the Crater Oil & Oas company
began pounding it way downward
for the hidden oil wealth which It Is
hoped will make thla ecUbn a aec
ond Oklahoma.
The officer of the oil company
deserve much credit for the auccesa
of their entertainment and their un
usual patience with the Interested
audience who hampered the driller
In their operations. Good will and
courtesy waa ahowp, to the ((oldest
and youngeat spectators.
Everything at the ground waa
freo. An enterprising Ice cream
vendpr started selling hla ware, and
boforo tho company' representa
tives wero Informed had done a
profitable business. Immediately
that ho waa apotted, however, the
company bought tho Block of cone
and dispensed Ice cream iree mu-
aftor.
