Read this excerpt from The Great Fire. Schaffer's first signal went out at 9:30. Several minutes later, Schaffer realized his mistake and ordered Box 319 struck. This was still seven blocks away from the O'Learys', but close enough that firefighters could see the flames and alter their course. Unfortunately, Schaffer's young assistant, William J. Brown, stubbornly refused to strike Box 319, saying he was afraid it would confuse the situation.

Which statement best describes the effect of Brown’s refusal to strike Box 319?

The engines went directly to De Koven Street.
Schaffer took it upon himself to send out the correct signal.
The engines were sent to an incorrect location.
Schaffer found another way to redirect the engines.
