Fire destroys two barns in Madison Animals perish in midnight blaze on Mooney Hill Road BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

MADISON — Two barns went up in flames on Mooney Hill Road on Monday night. The New Hampshire Fire Marshal's Office is investigating. Madison fire chief Richard Judkins said firefighters got the call just after midnight. The first unit arrived on scene within five minutes. One barn was totally involved and the other was igniting. "We saved the house," said Judkins adding the home was 30 feet away.

The property, at 192 Mooney Hill Road, belongs to Janet Sherman of Sharon, Mass. There were no human injuries but a rabbit and some chickens perished, said Judkins. Ten fire departments responded to the three-alarm blaze, including Madison, all Conway departments except for East Conway, Tamworth, West Ossipee, Effingham and Center Ossipee. "When we have a party, we have a big one," said Judkins. see FIRE page 8
