Ox-drawn logging

Description

Black and white image of several women a 12-ox team being used to move a large log. A man stands next to one of the oxen, and a number of women and another man stand off to the back watching. The women wear clothing typical of the turn of the century, full sleeves and long skirts with large hats. Several other logs are in the background, and a dirt road runs along a rail fence back towards a house in the very back of the image.
