drawin mare

draw vBack over the years men went in the woods and cut long, small sticks for hoops. These hoops were 'drawn' on the "drawin mare." The object had four legs, was long and had a place on it for a man to sit. I guess this is where it got the name "mare".' As for the "drawin," well, the man used a drawin knife which he used by holding it in his two hands and' doing a to and fro movement over the stick to cut of[f] the bark and knots.DNE-cit JH 6/75Used I and SupNot usedWithdrawnblank n, haul v, draw-bucket, drawing- ~, draw-latchCard marked DNE-cit but is withdrawn
