Tom S. Ueltschey died Friday night
Preminent and popular contractor succumbs to attack of appendicitis
Tom S. Ueltschey, popular and prominent local contractor and builder, died at the Hamilton Sanitarium Friday night of last week at about 9:00. He was operated on Tuesday night, but owing to the fact that the operation was too long delayed, he never had a chance to recover.
His sister, from Tulia, Texas, and one of his brothers from Mississippi were here at the time of his death, and the body was shipped to his old home in Tennessee for interment Saturday morning.
Nearly 11 years ago, when the writer came to Olney, he remembers as one of the first citizens he met Tom Ueltschey. He was a quiet, unassuming, honest, straightfordward citizen, and a man whom it was a pleasure and a privilege to know. H ehad not lived in Olney continuously ofr all of this time, but had spent some three years out on the Plains, having returned to Olney some few months ago, and since his return has been associated with the W.C. Bowman Lumber Company and had charge of the construction work on many of the newer and better homes in the city.
He was a member of the Methodist church and a Mason.

Oil Field in Young County is Extended
Roxana’s Payne Well Carries Production Further Eastward
Graham, Texas, Sept. 10 - The Roxana Payne Well No. 1 located on the C.P. Benson survey, South Bend, has been completed and is producing 100 barrels of oil a day at 2,100 feet. This well is the fartherest east of any production in the South Bend field. About one mile south of this well the Goode No. 3 on the Robert J. Scott survey is also in with 100 barrels a day at the same depth. It is also owned by the Roxana.
The Roxana North American J. M. Boozier Well No. 1 shows to be good for about 400 barrels at 1,040 feet. This well has never been completed as the gas pressure is so strong that it hinders setting casign but the company now hopes to get the casing set within the next day or two and drill the well in.
the Graham Oil Syndicate, a local company, had struck a nice showing of oil in its well on the Sarah Tankersly survey of 2,000 feet. This well is 700 feet west of the Panhandle McCluskey and it is the intention of the company to drill to the McCluskey depth of 2,500 and pass up the present showing.
The Panhandle McCluskey continues to produce about 600 barrels and is the best well so far in Young county. The Panhandle Company is drillingn an offset to this well 300 feet southwest and is erecting two other rigs, one north and the other east of the producing well.
The Arnold well was cleaned out the first of this week and is now producing about 100 barrels. THis is about 20 barrels more than this well has produced for the last six months. The Texas pipe line will reach this weel within the next few days.
