Text Appearing Before Image:
neighborhood of Bear River City, on the Union Pacific railroad, near the boundary of Utah and Wyoming, and also about 15 mileseast of there, in the hills, wells were sunk, from which a few barrels of petroleum were obtained, but I fancy it never proved a pecuniarysuccess. The supply was small, and the product of too little value to pay for working. This was nine or ten years since. I heard of a man who claimed to have a petroleum well somewhere between the south end of the Wind river and the Big Horn mountainsfrom which he was obtaining an excellent lubricating oil, and which he sold at a high price. Some excitement was spoken of in the papersa year or two since about petroleum on the west slopes of the Black hills of Dakota; and there has been talk of some out on the hills to the a Geological Survey of Indiana, 1878, p. 520. b Report of Geological Surrey of Miami county, Kansas, by G. C. Swallow. 18G5. Kansas City, Missouri. c Professor William M. Carpenter, A. J. S. (1), xxxv, 345.
