Hot load quickly dumped
A blazing load of hay is dumped from a truck on the Old Tramway Road, near Sheffield, last evening. The driver’s quick action in raising the hoist saved the truck, but the burning bales set fire to grass and trees on the roadside. The Sheffield Volunteer Fire Brigade, which was called to the scene about 6.15 p.m., quickly had the fire under control. The cause of the fire was not known. .
