The Journal of Martha Cory Today I am Martha Corey and I am covering pages 83 - 104

Today i was tried for witchcraft. Harthorne was the judge and questioned me. The reason he believed i was a witch was because i am a women that can not only read, but reads other books beside the bible. In the court room things got a little out of hand. My husband, Giles tried to fight back the reasons i was suspected of witchcraft. Later on Mr. Proctor was questioned by Danforth. Danforth was really hard on him. I felt bad for him. Sometimes i just wish this whole witchcraft thing would just go away. (JW)
