Morgan Lumber Company of Center sold some of its sawmill equipment, perhaps from either its mill at Neuville or at Clark's Switch, to L. R. Bagwell and Otho S. Wooley sometime in 1909. Their equipment included the Morgan sawmill, one blacksmith shop, one engine, and seven boilers. By November, they were mortgaging 260,000 feet of lumber to S. H. Matthews from their sawmill at Bland Lake, just south of Shelby County, in San Augustine County.
In the 1910 census, Otho S. Wooley is enumerated as a “sawmiller” at Precinct 2, residence 93, at Shelbyville.
