Gas Well Abandoned
Four years of hard labor and many thousands of dollars, devoted to the drilling of the No. 2 well of the People's Natural Gas Co., on the railroad side of the Loyalhanna, near Longbridge, to a depth of 7,000 feet, have gone for naught, as it has been declared to be a "dry hole," and all operations upon it have ceased. Time and work, placed at stake, in the gamble, are both gone without return, as the casing is to be drawn out and further operations are to be abandoned. Four thousand eight hundred feet of casing were used in the hole.
