A Dictionary of Law

The stems or trunks of trees cut into convenient lengths for the purpose of being afterward manufactured into lumber of various kinds. So held in a statute creating a lien in favor of persons who furnish supplies to men pngaged in taking logs out of the forest.* A person using a public stream by floating logs is not responsible at common law to a riparian proprietor for damages occasioned by the stranding of logs upon his land, if the driver has used reasonable effort to retain the logs within the stream."
