salem witch trials and the puritans.

The Salem witch trials deal with believing and acting witchcraft. The trails happened in 1962.From June through September of 1692 there was 19 people that were all convicted with witchcraft. They were all sent to Gallows Hill near Salem village to be hung. It all happened when a little girl was sick and nothing could get her better. So the parents called the doctor and he said it was a case of witchcraft.
