# O.C.G.A. § 44-14-515. Liens for articles furnished to sawmills; priorities.

All persons furnishing sawmills with timber, logs, provisions, or any other thing necessary to carry on the work of sawmills shall have liens on the mills and their products, which liens shall, as between themselves, rank according to date, and the date of each shall be from the time when the debt was created. The liens shall be superior to all liens except liens for taxes; liens for labor as provided for in Code Sections 44-14-380, 44-14-381, and 44-14-514; and all general liens of which they have actual notice before their debts were created.
