The Benson Oil Pool, lying south of Benson, and extend- 

 ing southwestward along the strike 2y 2 miles from Kincheloe 

 Creek to Smoky Fork of Freemans Creek, is apparently an 

 extension of the Wolf Summit Fifth Sand Pool of Harrison 

 County. The oil is found in a narrow belt, only about one- 

 half mile wide, the wells both to the northwest and southeast 

 of this oil streak having been gassers, so that the pool is well 

 denned. About fifty wells have been drilled on the Lewis 

 County side of the line. The following is a record of one of 

 them:
