Seite 592 - I cannot learn that any considerable part .of the large quantity of petroleum used in the Eastern States under the name of Seneca Oil comes from the spring now described. I am assured that its source is about one hundred miles from Pittsburgh, on the Oil Creek which empties into the Allegheny river in the township and County of Venango. It exists there in great abundance, and rises in purity to the surface of the water. By dams enclosing certain parts of the river or creek it is prevented from flowing...

Seite 580 - Many cures are attributed to this oil by the natives, and lately by some whites, particularly Rheumatic pains and old ulcers ; it has hitherto been taken for granted that the water of the Creek was impregnated with it, as it was found in so many places, but I have found this to be an error, as I examined it carefully and found it issuing out of two places only — these two are about four hundred yards distant from (each) other, and on opposite sides of the Creek.
