I remember my 2nd grade teacher a SSND telling our class about a horrible fire in the past... I am sure it was this... This a communities( Parents, Parish, Religious order) worst nightmare

I remember the day of that fire. Although I live in NY, because I went to a Parochial school at the time. If think that this fire began the modern age of Fire Drills and Fire sprinklers inside schools.

@lonewolf13scott it was a Parafin and Gasoline mixture the Parafin was to make the canvas waterproof and the Gasoline was to break down the Wax, and it wasnt gasoline that we have today it was the White gasoline filled with lead and in the investigation they said that because of the war they didnt have any fireproofing materials

It is just so unbelievably horrible that these kids had to die because of one's stupid decision.

The angels are always near to those who are grieving, to whisper to them that their loved ones are safe in the hand of God. Touchable Tribute, Brought tears down my eyes, May God Bless them all ~ Zac

@bigkevcxza Yes I studied up on that fire too. I was a fire inspector for many years and these tragedies always got to me. That circus fire was a bad one. Did you know that back then they treated the canvas tents with kerosene to make them waterproof? What an ignorant thing to do
