On May 31, 1915, Chas D. Lacy sold his sawmill plant one-half mile south of Elysian Fields to T. C. Davis for $300 and considerations. Equipment included a 60-inch by 16-foot boiler, an 11-inch by 14-inch Ames steam engine, a Tower edger, a Curtiss sawmill and carriage with belting, pulleys, shafting, and buggies, a mill shed, etc.
T. C. Davis was to move the sawmill to his site. Davis had been a part-owner of State Line Lumber Company almost a decade earlier. It had gone bankrupt and was sold off to Louis Werner Sawmill Co. It is possible that Davis moved the mill to his old site near the Sabine River, close to De Berry.
