  5. I’m doing a 6 page paper on this.

  6. im doing a report about this  and i have to write 2 pages this was the saddest story i ever heard

  7. I very rarely respond to the video comments on my videos, but just want to say yes – I am very aware of the huge Peshtigo Fire which occurred the same night and was bigger. Also Holland Mich burned down and most of Lower Michigan the same night! I believe the culprit was a comet and not Mrs. O’Leary’s cow. I just posted Chicago because I live here Thx

    There was a much bigger fire in Peshitgo Wisconsin on the same day as the great Chicago fire, and it killed more people than the Great Chicago fire

    Most people don’t know or care about the Peshtigo fire because it didn’t happen in a big city like Chicago.

    Ever look along the rail road tracks in the midwest and see miles and miles of it covered with hemp? When I was a child in the 70s it was at EVERY inch of track. I used to ask grampa why? He said the rail cars used to ship hemp seed and it sprinkled out. Why hemp seed? He said it was our fuel before the oil wells during his his daddy and grandpas time..

    Just another one of many rivers that catch fire during this few decades of American history. Why ? ..Why not before? ..Why not after?…

    LEGALIZE HEMP SEED OIL FUEL AGAIN. I don’t care what they do with smoking weed, I mean HEMP. The non fossil fuel we can all be getting our energy from again.

    The pollutants on the river was raw gasoline. That was a unused byproduct of the earliest fossil oil processing till Henry Ford revolutionized the gasoline engine w/ lots of very cheap gas. Companys used to just dump it in all the rivers and many rivers caught fire. The oil companys of this day made heating fuels, lighting fuels, and diesel fuels. The first fossil producers did not know what to do with gas because before this time they had been processing hemp seed oil into deisel and heat oils
