Tracy said firefighters were called to the fire at about 6:30 p.m. Friday. The fire was three miles north of Gore on State Highway 10.
"We were assisted by forestry (from the State Department of Agriculture) and the Webbers Falls fire department," Tracy reported, "and were on the scene until 9:30 p.m."
Tracy said a second grass fire along an electric pole right-of-way was also extinguished. "We were concerned that the poles might catch fire," he added.
Tracy said the landowner "was not happy."
The fire is under investigation by the state fire marshal, Tracy said.
A second grass fire, which began at about 5:30 p.m. Sunday, burned about a quarter acre, Tracy said. The fire, on Gore Landing Road, was quickly extinguished, he reported, and not considered to be arson.
