HENNIKER, NH - On August 13th at 5:00 P.M., Henniker NH firefighters found the Patenaude Lumber Mill fully involved on arrival. The mill had been vacant for a while.

A thunderstorm rolled in and caused a large tree branch to take out a major power line that caused the fire. A third alarm was called for on arrival, including Concord's Tower Ladder and numerous tankers to shuttle water.

The fire was under control at 6:41 P.M.
