This Day in History: 1918-04-14
A new well has been dug at the Stephen Birch estate by Harry E. Estes of Ridgewood. It is 8 inches in diameter. It struck water at 157 feet from a site well above the house on the hillside. There is so much water that it flows to five feet above the ground surface and the supply seems limitless. It will be piped for immediate use. (Bistrow)
