ice-plow

Updated: May 28, 2025

We built a new ice-house near the east barn in November; and in December the old Squire drove to Portland and brought home a complete kit of tools three ice-saws, an ice-plow or groover, ice-tongs, hooks, chisels, tackle and block. Everything had to be bought new, but the old Squire had visions of great profits ahead from his growing herd of Jerseys. Grandmother, however, was less sanguine.
