A fire destroyed a barn at a New Hampshire farm that has been the backdrop for political events for Republican presidents and candidates through the years. The fire, which broke out a little after 10:30 p.m. Monday, burned down the largest barn at the Scamman Farm in Stratham. Fire crews from numerous towns responded. The cause of the fire is under investigation, the Stratham Fire Department said. "Everyone is safe, our family is safe! Thank you to everyone for the kind words and most importantly Thank you to all of the fire fighters that put themselves on the line to keep everyone safe," the owners said early yesterday in a Facebook post. In 2011, Mitt Romney announced at the farm that he was running for president. Former Presidents George W. Bush and his father, George H.W. Bush, also had visited the farm.
