Database Links
I chose the following database article from the New York Times because one of my fascinations with the Salem Witch Trials is the "aftermath" so to speak.

I found this article in the News Bank archive. I chose this article because it discusses a similar event that occurred decades after the Salem Witch Trials.

The gentlemen who started the rumors about this women seemed to know that witch craft accusations would achieve what he wanted which in this case seem to be the woman's death.
