THE space allotted to Second District in this volume is necessarily so 
limited that a full and special discussion of petroleum, as existing in 
the district, could not be inserted, as I had proposed. Much detailed in- 
formation, however, will be found in the reports on several counties. 
I append some tables of analyses by Prof. Wormley which have never 
been published in tabulated form. Many of them were made for private 
parties, at their own cost, and are published by permission. They will 
be valuable for reference.
