Monmouth Beach, Monmouth County. — Nothing further was learned 
regarding the well at this place than its depth (380 feet) and that it 
was satisfactory. The horizon from which the water is obtained is in 
the Matawan formation, in beds about 100 feet above its base, the same 
as that at Monmouth Park, the deeper wells at Eedbank and Sea- 
bright, and the 108-foot well at Atlantic Highlands. 
Monmouth Parle, Monmouth County. — The three wells here are 385 
feet deep and 4 inches in diameter. The water flows 4 feet above the 
surface, which is 10 feet above tide level, and yields 75 gallons a minute 
on pumping. The horizon is the same as that in the Monmouth Beach 
well. It is reported that a trial boring was made to a depth of 900 feet 
to rock which was thought to be the granite or "bed rock." 
Moorestoum, Burlington County. — The well at this place is on the 
Pensauken, 1J miles south of the village, and at an elevation of 10

and has a depth of 457 feet. Water that flowed above the surface in 
considerable quantity was found at 118, 130, 320, and 338 feet. The
