A description of the storm that dashed the British victory in Washington D.C. in 1814.
After the Storm of 1814…

After the storm of 1814
The victors were no longer
Victorious.

The British had their crushing
Victory washed away by a
Hurricane.

They’d torched Washington and
Made them all flee till the
The hurricane of 1814.

The fires were doused and
Tornadoes came—many men
Died and buildings caved.

Their trains were destroyed and
Equipment all gone, eventually the Britts
Simply couldn’t go on.

All because of a storm in 1814.
