Isn't this a fascinating history?

i wonder if the ill are relating it by analogy to the burning down of the TEMPLAR CASTLE in the south of France?

I didn't burn it down - the TEMPLARS did.

Marie-Joseph Angélique (commonly known as Angélique or "Angelica;" died June 21, 1734) was the name given by her last owners[1] to a Portuguese-born black slave in New France (later the province of Quebec in Canada). She was tried and convicted of setting fire to her owner's home, burning much of what is now referred to as Old Montreal. Until recently, it was generally accepted that Angélique was guilty of the crime of which she was accused. However, it has recently been argued that she was, in fact, innocent of the crime and convicted more on the basis of her perception as a rebellious runaway slave than on the basis of factual evidence. A competing theory is that she was guilty of the crime as an act of justified rebellion against slavery. No consensus has been reached by the modern historical community on Angélique’s guilt or innocence.
