Here is an excerpt from the article done by The Kennebec Journal ..

Within hours of a fire’s destruction of a mobile home Tuesday morning at 15 Blue Rock Road in Monmouth, friends and co-workers were trying to raise money for a family of five left homeless and without any Christmas presents less than a week before the holiday.

No one was home and no one was hurt fighting the fire, which was called in about 8 a.m. by a neighbor who saw flames under the home, Monmouth Assistant Fire Chief Ed Pollard said.

By 9:30 a.m., firefighters had extinguished most of the fire and were sorting through the wreckage, looking for any lingering hot spots, Pollard said.

At its height, the fire had engulfed the home. Its whole underside was on fire at one point, Pollard said, and “you had a column of heavy black smoke that was well above the tree line here.”
