Clearing Land
Four Native American men posing while clearing land for farming. One man is standing atop a stump which has been pulled from the ground. Another man is holding an axe, and a third man is holding a simple log puller (a long pole with a metal hook.) The fourth man is holding the reins of a team of two horses. There are two large logs on the ground. |
