Great fire of London

2nd Sepember 1666

I was in the middle of my best dream and I was woken up by my friend and he told me the fire started at 2 am in Thomas Faynor's bakery shop I could hear people screaming to death and there are people trying to stop the fire with 300 houses have been destroyed.

King Charles II recommends pulling down the houses to make firs brakes. The king orders Pepys to command the lord Mayor to do this.
