As a wainwright , Hebert employed a number of other skilled craftsmen, including a wheelwright and a blacksmith.
Como Wainwright, Hebert empregou uma série de outros artesãos, incluindo um wheelwright e um ferreiro.

Manufactured by the Studebaker brothers or any of a dozen other wainwrights specializing in building wagons for the overland emigrants, a Prairie Schooner in good repair offered shelter almost as good as a house.

Fabricados pelos irmãos Studebaker ou qualquer de uma dúzia de outros wainwrights especializados em construção de vagões para os emigrantes por via terrestre, um Schooner Prairie em bom estado ofereceu abrigo quase tão bom quanto uma casa.
