Brush Fires Fought by Gallipolis Volunteers

Gallipolis volunteer firemen fought three brush fires on Sunday from 11:10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Fourteen men and two trucks tackled the first alarm at Tom Porter’s farm on Yellowtown Clay Chapel Road, with six acres burned and only two-tenths on Porter’s land. The blaze likely started from burning cane stalks and spread to grass. A second run involved thirteen men and one truck, then a third brush fire south of Mound Hill Cemetery on land owned by James D. Walker, burning about one tenth of an acre, probably sparked by a discarded match.
