In document N we learn about how there was a fued between the Nurse family and the Putnam. The Nurse family was harassing the Putnam family. Nurse was later found to be a witch so there might have been revenge from Putnam]]> 2021-01-14 16:42:34 UTC https://padlet.com/sbrendanmcdonough/xr9uovcebmt1s0nl/wish/1088027427 slukewilliams https://padlet.com/sbrendanmcdonough/xr9uovcebmt1s0nl/wish/1088036155 Something that could've happened were children could've been acting like something was wrong as a joke, except this joke went to far by ending up killing people for afflicting others because they're witches. It tells us this in document G telling us kids did this just to create some excitment and fame]]> 2021-01-14 16:44:13 UTC https://padlet.com/sbrendanmcdonough/xr9uovcebmt1s0nl/wish/1088036155 sbrendanmcdonough https://padlet.com/sbrendanmcdonough/xr9uovcebmt1s0nl/wish/1088053642 In this next picture we see what i'm assuming is three witches brwing up some type of either soup/food or a potion of some sorts.]]> 2021-01-14 16:47:22 UTC https://padlet.com/sbrendanmcdonough/xr9uovcebmt1s0nl/wish/1088053642 slukewilliams https://padlet.com/sbrendanmcdonough/xr9uovcebmt1s0nl/wish/1088072286 Another belief is that children had hysteria. Hysteria made people unable to control emotions. This may make a child seem a liitle different then other and mad people believe they were afflicted by a witch. Document H tells us the symptoms of hysteria and the afflicted were similar]]> 2021-01-14 16:50:48 UTC https://padlet.com/sbrendanmcdonough/xr9uovcebmt1s0nl/wish/1088072286 sbrendanmcdonough https://padlet.com/sbrendanmcdonough/xr9uovcebmt1s0nl/wish/1088076147 In this last picture, we see what I'm assuming is a witch that just discovered that she is not getting just arrested, but she is actually getting executed. That would explain the guards behind her being countermeasures if she tries to run.]]> 2021-01-14 16:51:33 UTC https://padlet.com/sbrendanmcdonough/xr9uovcebmt1s0nl/wish/1088076147 slukewilliams https://padlet.com/sbrendanmcdonough/xr9uovcebmt1s0nl/wish/1088088048 Another cause of this could have been from Ergot. This was a fungus that grew on grain. The weather of Salem matched the prefered weather of Ergot which document N told us gave symptoms like the symptoms of witch craft.]]> 2021-01-14 16:53:46 UTC https://padlet.com/sbrendanmcdonough/xr9uovcebmt1s0nl/wish/1088088048 sbrendanmcdonough https://padlet.com/sbrendanmcdonough/xr9uovcebmt1s0nl/wish/1088095018 "Thou shall not suffer a witch to live"
Document A Exodus 22:18
I think this means that the people that were againist the witch didn't want to see anyone suffer a witch's "wrath" and live while it is being pushed onto them.]]> 2021-01-14 16:55:03 UTC https://padlet.com/sbrendanmcdonough/xr9uovcebmt1s0nl/wish/1088095018 slukewilliams https://padlet.com/sbrendanmcdonough/xr9uovcebmt1s0nl/wish/1088153556 I feel like Document I was the most unuseful because it showed us were they lived in Salem and not why people were accused. Everyone lived everywhere in a small town making this document less useful then other]]> 2021-01-14 17:05:54 UTC https://padlet.com/sbrendanmcdonough/xr9uovcebmt1s0nl/wish/1088153556 slukewilliams https://padlet.com/sbrendanmcdonough/xr9uovcebmt1s0nl/wish/1110608744 So there were many different ways the witch trials were caused. Feuds, misbehaving children, hysteria, or ergot. It could be all of them or none of them. Maybe by looking into more evidence we will one day learn the true cause of the Salem Witch Trials.]]> 2021-01-21 16:00:51 UTC https://padlet.com/sbrendanmcdonough/xr9uovcebmt1s0nl/wish/1110608744
