Description
Excerpt from The Salem Belle: A Tale of 1692
It is an age of boasted liberty and light, but it may well be doubted whether these high preten sions are any powerful defence against popular mistakes. It often happens that the moral plague spot is first seen in the walks of science. It was so in the days which this manuscript commemorates men renowned for talents and learning gave coun tenance to a delusion which swept over the land, and will be known in all coming ages by its track of blood and death.
