lumber-handlers

Updated: May 7, 2025

Here I was at a business few could tell me much about. The lumber-handlers as a rule are a free and easy set, nearly all drinking men. It's warm work, and when a man is piling all day, pulling up plank after plank, he thinks a pint of beer does him good. They rush the can first the piler, then the stager, and then the ground man, then the piler again, and so on.
