Historicial Development: | William Fleming Daniel and H. V. Sitton, both of Cushing, owned a sawmill at Reklaw. In 1909, the St Louis Southwestern Railway Company of Texas arranged through its Rusk agent, J. F. Vermillon, agent, for a side track agreement from the tracks to the Daniel & Sitton sawmill.
Sitton and Daniel were buying pine stumpage in Cherokee County in 1908. Sitton and Daniel had Fidelity and Deposit Company of Maryland issue a garnishment order against Godley Lumber Company on May 18, 1910. |
