The first call at 1 p.m., gave an incorrect location and the smoke was not sufficient for the firefighters to locate the fire. However, at approximately 4:15 p.m., a second call located the fire at the corner of Clyde Line and Blyth Rd. where a grass fire had run along both sides of a ditch next to a harvested grain field. The blaze was quickly extinguished. It was later discovered the fire had been intentionally set to burn off weeds in preparation for straightening of the drainage ditch. However, the department had not been forewarned as is required for controlled burns.
