Salem, Massachusetts September 22, 1692: The Last of the Witch Trial Hangings

On this day in history
Salem, Massachusetts September 22, 1692: The Last of the Witch Trial Hangings..

Martha Cory, Margaret Scott, Mary Easty, Alice Parker, Ann Pudeator, Willmott Redd, Samuel Wardwell, and Mary Parker..

Seen here is the sun rising over the Witch Trial Memorial which I’ve spent endless hours walking and contemplating their lives and suffering..

If you visit Salem this Autumn, as fun as it is as a HalloweenTown, please remember and respect the innocent lives lost here and take take to solemnly acknowledge their sacrifices in the name of truth and honor.

From salemwitchmuseum.com

“Located just off Charter Street, on Liberty Street, is The simple yet dramatic memorial to the 20 victims of the witch trials of 1692. Four foot high granite walls surround three sides, with granite benches representing each victim cantilevered inward from the wall. Etched on each bench is a name, means of ex*****on, and ex*****on date. One can read, on the stone threshold of the memorial, words of the accused taken directly from court transcripts. Visitors will note that the words – among them, “God knows I am innocent” – are cut off in mid-sentence, representing lives cut short and indifference to the protestations of innocence.”
