On Feb. 3, 1916, a fire erupted during a session of the House of Commons. Within a few hours, the building was engulfed and the tower had collapsed. Seven people would lose their lives and the repairs to the building would take over a decade. This is the story of a cigar left sitting on papers, the scapegoat blame that was passed around and the efforts of those inside and outside the building to save what they could.
