There is a person in tshirt and shorts running in from the left his left hand waving. The two windows to the left of the front door have fire billowing out of them and smoke pouring from the door.

The image is oriented vertically. Image 8 shows two firemen crawling into the building with their hose. There is another fireman standing off to the right. One of the pillars in front of the house have the numbers 1813 on it. The image is oriented horizontally. Image 9 shows three firemen outside the home. One is crouched down spraying water on the house with a fire hose.The other two are standing nearby and a third person wearing plainclothes and a firehat is standing farther away. Image 10 shows two firemen entering the house. One is standing and holding the hose, the other is crawling on their stomach. The image is oriented vertically. Image 11 is virtually identical to the previous image. Image 12 shows two firemen standing outside the house looking at it. There are two windows with fire and smoke coming out. There is another fireman in the background using a hose on the house. Image 13 is very similar to the previous image. The fireman on the right is using a hose to spray the house.
