Blue Hill Fire Department Responds to Blaze

The Blue Hill Volunteer fire department was called to a fire about 7 p.m. this evening. The fire was south west of Blue Hill where some hay bales caught fire. About 9 volunteers and six vehicles responded and helped put out the fire. The bales belonged to Larry Krueger. The fire may have been caused by a trash fire that had not been completely put out before being left unattended. Dan VanBoening assisted the firemen in spreading out the bales so they would be throughly extinguished. The fire department spent about two hours and a half hours fighting the fire. No Buildings were involved in the fire.
