Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't it three innocent young girls who started the whole thing?

Overall bit poorly put on my behalf: They were accused of witchcraft at this date. But to answer your question, you got me uncertain... Was it that their speeches caused somebody's lynching or their own lynching or was it that they were falsely accused? To be honest, I can't remember... But date is correct! :blink:

As far as I know they just went around pointing at everybody else and got a few other people executed for witchcraft (including one or two men, by the way).
