How did the great Chicago fire happen?

The true cause of the Great Chicago Fire of 1871 is not known. Folklore of the time said the fire was started in the barn of Mrs. Patrick O'Leary when her cow kicked over a lantern.

Cohn during a game of craps. It is also rumored to be that Mr. Cohn confessed to starting the fire.
