The above is the name of the Company, now being incorporated to prospect for Petroleum in the Town- ship of Elm, ill the County of Perth, 111'4 who have, for this purpose, secured some 2,000 acres of -valuable lands, in that and, adjoining townships, hpon moue advantageous terms. • The recent discovery of petroleum was made dur- ing the summer of t905, in drilling a water well upon the lands of one, William Baillie, when at the depth of some 60 feet, very pronounced showligs of the crude produet appeared, and steps were t on taken looking towards a thorough developments but their right to do so was questioned by the owner of the property, and an action was at onee btought by members of the present Company, for the purpose of asserting their rights under the lease which they had obtained. The action was disposed of at the Assizes in Strat- ford, and resulted in a, judgment in the plaintiff's favor, for damages and a perpetual injunction re- straining the defendent from further interference, but from this judgment the defendant appealed, and it was not until recent date that this appeal was abandoned, so that, with regard to the preperty up- on which the oil was first discovered, as Well as the rest of the Janda covered- by the Company's leases, their validity has now been fully esteblishedaud no further trouble is now to be anticipated. The Company has been capitalized at $1.00,000, in shares of 841.00 each, fully paid non -assessable stock, 815,000.00 of which has been placed upon the market for the investing public, and the proceeds of which will be used for the purpme of developing this new but very promising field. A large portion of this stock has been already sub- scribed and it is confidently expected that by the 15th of May the balance will be disposed of, the Com- pany's plant and machinery placed upon the ground and drilling operations in full swing. There is no preferred or watered stock, and, more.. over, not one dollar can be made by the ,promoters until such time as the Company has been put upon a dividend paying basis, neither can the interest in the project, which the promoters hold, be sold or dealt with in any way, until oil has been found in paying quantities.
