Introduction.

     This Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D is filed on behalf of the Richard M. Osborne Trust, an Ohio trust (the “Trust”), relating to Corning Natural Gas Corporation, a New York corporation (“Corning”). Richard M. Osborne is the sole trustee of the Trust.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

     On August 25, 2006, the Trust and Mr. Osborne filed a Preliminary Proxy Statement (the “Osborne Proxy Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission soliciting proxies for the special meeting of stockholders of Corning (the “Special Meeting”), scheduled for September 28, 2006, to vote against the proposed Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 11, 2006, by and among C&T Enterprises, Inc. (“C&T”), C&T Acquisition, Inc. and Corning, pursuant to which Corning would become a wholly-owned subsidiary of C&T (the “Merger”). In the Osborne Proxy Statement, Mr. Osborne details the reasons he believes that the Merger is not in the best interest of Corning’s stockholders.

     Also on August 25, 2006, Mr. Osborne’s representatives sent a letter to Corning’s representatives noting that Corning has set a record date for the Special Meeting that is more than 40 days before the scheduled date of the meeting, which is not in compliance with the time-period specified by Corning’s by-laws. Mr. Osborne assumes that Corning will adjust the record date or meeting date to comply with the requirements of its by-laws. This letter is attached as Exhibit 7.1.

     This Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D is not and should not be deemed to be a solicitation of proxies or consents with respect to any meeting of Corning’s stockholders. Any such solicitation by the Trust or Mr. Osborne will be made only pursuant to separate proxy or solicitation materials complying with all applicable requirements of Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

Item 7.Material to be Filed as Exhibits.

Exhibit 7.1 Letter dated August 25, 2006 regarding record date for Corning’s Special Meeting

SIGNATURE

     After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.

Date: August 28, 2006
