There has been a serious suggestion, I believe, that the great Chicago
fire was lit by meteorites, because there was quite a wide scattering of
fires (including forest fires) in that region the same night.
Notably the Peshtigo, Wisconsin fire, the largest forest fire in North
American history. It killed more people than the Chicago fire but
occurred over such a large and sparsely populated area that it took some
time for all its casualties and damage to be reported.
