I think most people understood that their chimneys were unsafe, but the crossing of the electric wires was less considered, yet there lay the danger, and as soon as the cloud of dust ran from the City—little columns of smoke were seen one, two, three—until they c’ld [sic] not be counted. Yet the thought of a general conflagration did not occur to us, so reliant were we upon our fire-service and so still the wind.
