Which of the following sentences DO NOT use the semicolon correctly?

Arnold and Betsy hurried to feed the pigs; a huge storm was coming.


The pigs were still out in the field; therefore, Betsy and Arnold had to corral them into the barn for safety.

As they ran back to the house, Betsy and Arnold laughed that the pigs were safe but they were caught in the storm; it was truly an adventure.
