What the Chicago Fire did for the reputation of Irish livestock owners, the Great Fire of London did for bakers. Supposedly — supposedly — started in the bakeshop of one Thomas Farynor (on of all streets: Pudding Lane), The Great Fire destroyed some 80% of the city over three days, killing 16 people. On the upside it purged London of a good deal of bubonic plague virus, which, you know, was good.
