Fires Create Toll as New England Forests Burn
Wide forest and brush fires raged across New England causing at least one death and hundreds of acres burned. In Rhode Island a 4 year old boy, William Perkins, died in Wood River Junction after a barn fire started by two children playing with matches. Firefighters fought blazes from Haydenville to South Braintree and near Randolph damaging buildings and threatening towns as residents sheltered and prepared to move. Continuous outbreaks stretched resources with crews from multiple towns and plants aiding efforts while authorities traced origins to burning corn stalks.
