wood-gallase

woods n, n pl_wood gallose_: After the sticks of wood were cut and brought home from the woods, they were all piled up vertically one against the other in a "wood gallase" or wood pile, waiting to be sawed. A wood gallace is built simply by putting two large sticks down in the [reverse] ground in a vertical position some distance apart. Another stick was nailed across the two sticks standing up. The wood then was laid up one by one against this stick.YesDNE-citUsed I and SupUsed IUsed I[see 'wood-gallows' wood, woods, wood-cat, wood chick, wood gallows, wood path, woodpecker, wood pile, wood slide, woods path, woods racket, woods road, woods rope, woods town, woods work, woods workerNewfoundland Folklore Survey Reverse side of w_1347
