Moore & Galloway Lumber Company Camp and Workers

Image

Lumber company workers pose in front of buildings at the Moore & Galloway Lumber Company camp, about a quarter of a mile east of Pike Lake. The man in a white apron standing in a doorway is Ole P. Dobbe of Alban, who was the cook. The building in the center was probably the woods boss's office, and the building to its left is a barn. The small building at the extreme left may be an outhouse.
