At the residence of Mr. Henry Brick there is a well 80 feet deep, and 
at the residence of Mr. Saninel Lippencott one 105 feet deep, which 
reach the Bedbank sands. 
On the farm of S. J. Eves, three-fourths of a mile south of Marlton, 
water was obtained at a depth of 114 feet: on the farm of J. W. Barr, 
2 miles east of Marlton, at 08 feet; on the farm of Josiah Ballenger, 3 
miles east-northeast of Marlton, at 70 feet; on the farm of Amos Evans, 
near Marlton, at 83 feet; on the farm of W. J. Evans, at 121 feet; at 
the residence of B. S. Lippencott, at 105 feet; at Levi Ballenger's, at 
82 feet; on the farm of Joseph Evans, 2 miles east-southeast of Marl- 
ton, at 98 feet; and on the Davis Rogers farm, 3 miles east of Marlton,

On the farm of Mr. Benjamin Cooper, 2 miles east of Marlton, there 
is a well which yields a large supply of u exceptionally good water."

The well is inches in diameter. The water rose to within 5 feet 7 
inches of the surface; after pumping, it rose to 3 feet 10 inches from 
the surface. The temperature is 54°. l 
It was suggested that this water was from over the Middle Marl, but 
it is much more probable that it is from the Redbank horizon, which 
furnishes water to other wells in the region. 
A well 3 miles southwest of Marlton, on property of Mrs. John Wil- 
kins, has a depth of 310 feet, and yields a satisfactory supply of water 
on pumping. 2
