The Ballantynes fire in Christchurch, caused considerable loss of life. Part cause of this was that the early finders of the fire, notified the fire brigade that it was a small fire and that they would deal with it themselves. So the brigade did not turn up immediately in spite of the fire alarms going. There was a Royal Commission enquiry into the events, and part of the results was that the brigade will always turn up, despite casual counter assurances.
An unexpected fire broke out during the standoff and they refused to go outside and get arrested, so I wouldn't call that a massacre.
The fire apparently started in an unoccupied warehouse at Kingston and Summer streets. A prevailing theory is that a coal spark from a steam boiler (used to power an elevator) may have ignited flammable materials stored near the boiler.
The Hartford circus fire occured on July 6, 1944 in Hartford Connecticut and it was one of the worse fire disasters in the United States history. The fire started during an afternoon performance at Ringling Bros and Barnum & Baily circus that was attended by 6,000 to 8,00 people. Some had claimed the cause to be a careless accident. But there were some people (mostly family members of the victims) who believed the fire was a murder crime-it was caused by an arson. Robert Segee who was an employee said in 1950 he was seeing an Indian riding a flaming horse telling him to set the fire. He was sentenced 40 of imprisonment. Hartford investigators had doubts of his confession. Segee had a history of mental illness-it can be proven he was somewhere in Connecticut when the fire happened. In 1994 Segee denied causing the fire then died in 1997. Many historians, investigators and family members of the victims believed the fire to be cause by an arson-if it was caused by an arson, that would be a big mystery.
Johnny and Pony save the kids because they wish someone had saved them. Both of them are used to youngsters having to save other youngsters, so of course they save the kids. Pony and Johnny save the kids also because they feel like they started the fire. Also, it proves at heart they are good kids.
