The load was trucked from near Gibralter, about 6 miles north of here. Of course Teeter's load would not be as heavy as maple, as we understand it was soft elm logs he drew. We understand that Mr. J. W. Rob- inson has purchased a new Che v. truck and is now preparing to cut the tops of the logs into wood.
