Smoldering mulch fire

A mulch fire discovered around dusk last evening remains smoldering, and there’s the smell of smoke in an area east of Seneca.  According to county fire dispatch, fire fighters intend to return this morning to the scene — Wells Highway at Davis Mill Road.  By 10 o’clock last night, fire fighters had contained the fire to one pile of mulch and were working to prevent it from spreading. Chief Christenbury of the Corinth-Shiloh Fire Department said the property owner split the burning pile of mulch into two piles — one burning, the other not burning.
