We set the town on fire and burned down every house as a warning to other small towns along the river.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I once lived in a cottage made entirely of wood, and there was an electrical fire. We all ran outside, and no one got hurt, but the house was demolished.
They were fun days, and we set the town on fire with every movie we did.
Our house was bombed, and the roof fell in. We were sitting under the stairs of the basement, and we were quite safe, but it brought home the realization. In two nights 400 people were killed in small town.
If a natural disaster strikes your community, reach out to your friends, neighbors, and complete strangers. Lend a helping hand.
One of the things that really got to me was talking to parents who had been burned out of their villages, had family members killed, and then when men showed up at the wells to get water, they were shot.
I didn't want to spend the next thirty years writing about bad things happening in the same small town - not least of all because people would begin to wonder why anyone still lives there!
The town caught fire in several places, shells crashed and burst, and solid shot rained like hail.
You burned the city of London in our houses and we felt the flames.
If you burn your neighbors house down, it doesn't make your house look any better.
I burned down our house, and that put a strain on our family.
