    Notes:

    Mary Esty, so gentle in life that the magistrates themselves were with
    difficulty convinced of her witchhood, and her very jailers pleaded for her,
    nevertheless had the will of a Cromwell. Even when she knew that there was no
    hope of establishing her own innocence, she had continued her contest with the
    judges in the hope of saving others.

    She was hanged accused of practicing witchcraft despite the moving appeal to
    the court she composed after her trial. "I petition your honors not for my own
    life," she wrote, "for I know I must die, and my appointed time is set; but
    ..., if it be possible, that no more innocent blood be shed."
