Simultaneously, the water which filled the well…was expelled to a great height; and a column of gas, rock-fragments and oil followed it, at first at the rate of about 250 barrels per hour, rapidly increased to 500, 1000 barrels, etc., until on the third day the discharge…was estimated…to be at least 3000 42 gallon barrels of oil per hour, or about 75,000 barrels in 24 hours. —Anthony F. Lucas
