Source #1: Artifact - This is a primary source because it was there at the time of the fire. It is a painting that was in that burned down house of my mom's. It is one of the few things that survived the fire, and it has been re framed and it still looks pretty new. It is a painting by an anonymous painter, and it is now in my house. It is significant to the fire, because it was the only thing that we still have of that was there in the fire.

This is my mom's passport. It is only a secondary source to the fire because it wasn't directly related to it. It just shows that after several months of my mom's house being burned down, she flew to the U.S. to start studying there.

Written recount of event: When my mom was about 14 years old, a fire started in her house, and she ran out with nothing. The house burned down everything except for a painting that wasn’t directly in the house. After the house burned down, my mom got really exhausted, because she didn’t have anything, which she mentions in her interview. After living in a rented house for 4 or 5 months, my mom moved to America to start her studies.
