A fire that started in a wood pellet dryer late Sunday in Athens extended into the building, damaging the walls, roof and many wire trays. Fourteen fire departments and more than 50 firefighters responded to the blaze at Maine Woods Pellet Co. The company is owned by Linkletter & Sons Inc. which is located about a half-mile from Maine Woods Pellet on Harmony Road and was the scene of a fire Saturday that destroyed a commercial garage.
