Bath Ironworks Bath Maine.
A man I will not name worked there for 30 years and he burned wood, so they allowed him to take home scraps of wood for his stove.
Every night when his shift was done he would go out the gate with a wheelbarrow full of wood, and the guards would poke through it looking for stolen parts and such. Never did find anything, so when he retired, he walked out the gate without any wood. One of the guards called him over and said, "I know you have been stealing from the yard, and if you will tell me, I won't say a word to anyone. What have you been stealing"?
Man said, "Wheelbarrows."
