Context

Used to jack up a wagon to change wheels in the 1890-1900s. Wagons in regular use needed daily greasing. This jack was used to lift the axle so the wheel could be removed and axle grease smeared on the spindle. When a loaded wagon slipped off a jack it was sometimes a major catastrophe. From L. J. Priebe Estate.
