Spring pulpwood drive on the Brown Company timber holdings in Maine. A "mogee" brings lunch when men are working far from passable truck or wagon roads. "Mogee" is French-Canadian mildly profane slang for this horse drawn wheel-less wagon and various other non-descript things; the American equivalent might be something like "darned who-zee-what-sis."
