Need Help With Occupation

[saw119]

Can anyone help me read this occupation please? It's from a man living in Anson County, NC. I know the quality isn't that great so if needs be I'll have another go at snipping it out.

Harness maker yes, I just came to the same conclusion. In 1850 I now see that he's a 'saddle and harness maker' so it makes sense now. With a personal estate value of $2000! I think some comparisons with other members of the Gulledge community is in order.

Looks like Andy is right - harness maker.
