Witchcraft in Salem!

Today I have arrived in Salem! How exciting this all is! Accusations of witchcraft and the work of the devil are everywhere. I feel like I have been preparing for this moment since I became a minister. It seemed very obvious that the girls were up to something after talking to Reverend Parris. It was no shock to me that the girls were under the influence of the devil’s forces because dancing in the forest is just a horrible offense for girls to do. I was also not shocked when the Abigail said she was being bewitched by Tituba, a slave. Tituba then confessed to being under the devils evil watch and seeing another person with the devil. I did find it odd, however, that when I told Tituba that she is with God now, Abigail jumped right in after saying that she had never seen the devil and confessed that the devil had come to her with other women too. Then, quite surprisingly, the little girl, Betty, came too in time to call out the people she had seen with the devil. I had never thought that such a small town as Salem could harbor so many people under the spell of the devil for so long. I am excited to continue to get to the bottom of this witchcraft.
