Canadian Splint Storage Shed

Canadian Splint Storage Shed, 1 Water Street May 01, 1995 11:12 p.m.

Quite spectacular to look at, the large wooden structure became completely engulfed in flames within minutes. In total 10 professional and 6 volunteer fire fighters worked through the night to contain the blaze. Hot embers the size of a man's fist were carried more than eighty feet into the air, and were threatening to spread the fire to other areas. Hot spots were still being extinguished seven hours after the first report was called in. Fortunately, there were no injuries.
