A record of one well has been obtained at Dinner Island. This 
is a three-inch well drilled by Mr. H. Mervin for Padgett and Com¬ 
pany. It has a total depth of 200 feet and does not flow although 
the water is reported to rise to within two< feet of the surface. 
ELKTON. 
Flowing wells are obtained at Elkton. A five-inch well drilled 
by N. H. Monck in 1908 on the Middleton farm reached a total 
depth of 260 feet. The well is cased 100 feet and the principal 
supply of water comes from a depth of 200 feet. The water is re¬ 
ported to rise five feet above the surface.

the vicinity of this place. The material encountered here to the 
depth of about 125 feet consists largely of clays. Water is obtain¬ 
ed at a depth of from 200 to 250 feet, the wells terminating in 
limestone.

depth of 225 feet and is cased 60 feet. The water is reported to
