LIST OF PRODUCING WELLS IN SPINDLETOP POOL. 
The following list gives the names of the wells in the Spindletop 
pool which have shown a yield of oil sufficient to be considered of 
commercial importance. It is as complete np to June 15, 1902, as it 
has been possible to make it by consulting numerous sources of infor- 
mation, although there are doubtless some omissions and inaccuracies. 
This is especially the case with the ownership of the wells, which is 
subject to frequent changes, and is sometimes difficult to determine. 
The sisse of the bottom or inner casing and the depth of the well have 
been given wherever ascertained. Not all of these wells are to be 
credited with actual commercial production, since many of them, 
after having been "brought in" and allowed to flow long enough to 
free themselves of any obstructions, have been closed up and never 
connected with a tank or pipe line. They have been potentially pro- 
ductive but actually dead. The reason for this has been the lack of 
facilities for storing or transporting the oil.
