Barn Fire At Pete & Madonne Rainville's Farm On Swamp Road

[Henry]

From what I can gather on the scanner, there is a barn fire at Pete and Madonne Rainville's farm on the Swamp Road.  This would be the old Rainville Farm.  - Heard the activity on my scanner a little after 4 a.m. this morning. 

I have heard Fairfax, Milton, Westford and Georgia fire trucks on the air.

Lots of fire trucks there so was not able to get close to the fire.  Took the photo below from Art Webb's farm.  Looks like pretty much just the two silos left and I am assuming it started around 4 a.m. this morning:

Chris Santee just called me on his cell phone from Pete & Madonna's.  No one was injured in the fire, however Chris tells me Pete lost about half of his cows in the fire.  John Collins is there now and is picking up the remaining cows.  Chris will be sending me photos shortly he said which I will put up.
