Wolfe Swamp Burns For Hours
Fire crews from the city’s fire and street departments battled a blaze at the city dump between Florence and Bartram avenues since noon Sunday. The underground, earth-covered rubbish hindered progress as five hundred fifty feet of hose fought flames from a Florence avenue hydrant. Helpers joined to manage hoses while the fire burned on and off, with chief Charles Lynn flooding the area again at 3 am and continuing work until 8 am. Officials believe spontaneous combustion of dumped mattresses and rags sparked the fire.
