Blyth firefighters were called to a fire at Jim Dickson's RR3, Blyth property early Saturday
afternoon. Fire Chief Paul Josling said the wood from a torn down shed was ignited by a
nearby bonfire. Residents were concerned that it might spread, so the firefighters were
called to control the situation and protect the surrounding buildings.
