There was also a Devil side and if a person was to come in contact with the devil or make a ¨pact¨ then  they would be called a witch or wizard. If they accused or found out someone did witchcraft in the 17th century then they would be laying in their death bed. In 1692 many people were accused and sentence to death for doing witch craft and Bridget Bishop was the first person to be executed for witchcraft but Governor Phips stopped everything after tons of person were being accused, and in 1693 they released everyone  in jail that was accused. ]]> 2017-12-08 19:15:47 UTC https://padlet.com/s_isabella_jiang/fh5n8nk105sj/wish/214622614 s_isabella_jiang https://padlet.com/s_isabella_jiang/fh5n8nk105sj/wish/215034478 By:Jone Johnson Lewis ]]> 2017-12-11 14:47:10 UTC https://padlet.com/s_isabella_jiang/fh5n8nk105sj/wish/215034478 s_isabella_jiang https://padlet.com/s_isabella_jiang/fh5n8nk105sj/wish/215041672 I think that what caused the SWT was what i said in Cause #3 about the puritans being really religious which lead them to hate the devil and the people who associates with them which are the witches and wizards. Also they could've been possessed by the devil. If they found out who did it then they would kill them.]]> 2017-12-11 14:58:25 UTC https://padlet.com/s_isabella_jiang/fh5n8nk105sj/wish/215041672 s_isabella_jiang https://padlet.com/s_isabella_jiang/fh5n8nk105sj/wish/215578874 One of the causes that i think caused the Salem witch trials was that there was a lot of hysteria back then, and both kids and adults had it before. In Document H it states that ¨The diagnosis also explains many of the adult fits experienced by those who were convinced that their neighbors were conjuring¨, which means that hysteria could've caused witchcraft to happen.]]> 2017-12-12 19:14:51 UTC https://padlet.com/s_isabella_jiang/fh5n8nk105sj/wish/215578874 s_isabella_jiang https://padlet.com/s_isabella_jiang/fh5n8nk105sj/wish/215582425 By: the blog Rebel Circus]]> 2017-12-12 19:23:23 UTC https://padlet.com/s_isabella_jiang/fh5n8nk105sj/wish/215582425 s_isabella_jiang https://padlet.com/s_isabella_jiang/fh5n8nk105sj/wish/215585465 I think the second cause for the Salem witch trials is that back then everyone was weird and crazy. In Documents K and L ,the nurse in document K was¨ biting,pinching,and pricking me¨ which is a strange act for a nurse. Also in document L it said that the nurse ¨almost choke me¨ which means that she was really crazy]]> 2017-12-12 19:29:49 UTC https://padlet.com/s_isabella_jiang/fh5n8nk105sj/wish/215585465 s_isabella_jiang https://padlet.com/s_isabella_jiang/fh5n8nk105sj/wish/215662962 Document A didn't help me much because it was just a quote from King James Bible

In Document C It says that there are ¨these  evil spirits are all around¨ which means that they hated the devil and witches. Their religion caused for SWT to happen. ]]> 2017-12-13 03:49:01 UTC https://padlet.com/s_isabella_jiang/fh5n8nk105sj/wish/215665697 s_isabella_jiang https://padlet.com/s_isabella_jiang/fh5n8nk105sj/wish/215805496 The last cause for the SWT was that they could've gotten ¨long term ergot poisoning¨. In Document N it states that it was a ¨common condition resulting from eating contaminated rye bread¨ which means that poisoning could've been the reason why witchcraft started because they would hallucinate, and have many other problems going on with them.]]> 2017-12-13 14:38:56 UTC https://padlet.com/s_isabella_jiang/fh5n8nk105sj/wish/215805496 s_isabella_jiang https://padlet.com/s_isabella_jiang/fh5n8nk105sj/wish/216015349 by:Allison Nicholas ]]> 2017-12-14 00:07:11 UTC https://padlet.com/s_isabella_jiang/fh5n8nk105sj/wish/216015349
