Struggling to survive in a vast and sometimes unforgiving land, Americas earliest
14、 European settlers understood themselves to be surrounded by an inscrutable universe filled with invisible spirits, both benevolent and evil, that affected their lives. They often attributed a sudden illness, a household disaster or a financial setback to a witchs curse. The belief in witchcraft was
15、, at bottom, an attempt to make sense of the unknown.While witchcraft was often feared, it was punished only infrequently. In the first 70 years of the New England settlement, about 100 people were formally charged with being witches; fewer than two dozen were convicted and fewer still were executed
16、.Then came 1692. In January of that year, two young girls living in the household of the Reverend Samuel Parris of Salem Village began experiencing strange fits. The doctor identified witchcraft as the cause. After weeks of questioning, the girls named Tituba, Parriss female Indian slave, and two lo
17、cal women as the witches who were tormenting them.Judging by previous incidents, one would have expected the episode to end there. But it didnt. Other young Salem women began to suffer fits as well. Before the crisis ended, 19 people formally accused others of afflicting them, 54 residents of Essex
18、County confessed to being witches and nearly 150 people were charged with consorting with the devil. What led to this?Traditionally, historians have argued that the witchcraft crisis resulted from factionalism in Salem Village, deliberate faking, or possibly the ingestion of hallucinogens by the aff
19、licted. I believe another force was at work. The events in Salem were precipitated by a conflict with the Indians on the northeastern frontier, the most significant surge of violence in the region in nearly 40 years.In two little-known wars, fought largely in Maine from 1675 to 1678 and from 1688 to
20、 1699, English settlers suffered devastating losses at the hands of Wabanaki Indians and their French allies. The key afflicted accusers in the Salem crisis were frontier refugees whose families had been wiped out in the wars. These tormented young women said they saw the devil in the shape of an In
21、dian. In testimony, they accused the witchesreputed ringleaderthe Reverend George Burroughs, formerly pastor of Salem Villageof bewitching the soldiers dispatched to fight the Wabanakis. While Tituba, one of the first people accused of witchcraft, has traditionally been portrayed as a black or mulat
22、to woman from Barbados, all the evidence points to her being an American Indian.To the Puritan settlers, who believed themselves to be Gods chosen people, witchcraft explained why they were losing the war so badly. Their Indian enemies had the devil on their side.In late summer, some prominent New E
23、nglanders began to criticize the witch prosecutions. In response to the dissent, Governor Sir William Phips of Massachusetts dissolved in October the special court he had established to handle the trials. But before he stopped the legal process, 14 women and 5 men had been hanged. Another man was cr
24、ushed to death by stones for refusing to enter a plea. The war with the Indians continued for six more years, though sporadically. Slowly, northern New Englanders began to feel more secure. And they soon regretted the events of 1692.Within five years, one judge and 12 jurors formally apologized as t
25、he colony declared a day of fasting and prayer to atone for the injustices that had been committed. In 1711, the state compensated the families of the victims.And last year, more than three centuries after the settlers reacted to an external threat by lashing out irrationally, the convicted were cle
26、ared by name in a Massachusetts statute.

He gave him a look, but Sobels bald head was bent
31、over the last as he worked, and he didnt notice. The shoemaker shrugged and continued to peer through the partly frosted window at, the near-sighted haze of falling February snow.

33、to further his education.An old wish returned to haunt the shoemaker: that he had had a son instead of a daughter, but this blew away in the snow for Feld, if anything, was a practical man.

He had begged her to go, pointing out how many fathers could not afford to send their children to college, but she said she wanted to be

Who he was the shoemaker for a moment had no idea, then his heart trembled as he realized, before he had thoroughly discerned the face, that Max himself was standing there, embarrassedly explaining what he wanted done to his old shoes. Though Feld listened eagerly, he couldn
37、t hear a word, for the opportunity that had burst upon him was deafening.He couldnt exactly recall when the thought had occurred to him, because it was clear he had more than once considered suggesting to the boy that he go out with Miriam. But he had not dared speak, for if Max said no, how would h
38、e face him again? Or suppose Miriam, who harped so often on independence, blew up in anger and shouted at him for his meddling? Still, the chance was too good to let by: all it meant was an introduction. They might long ago have become friends had they happened to meet somewhere, therefore was it no

Just let him once see and talk to her, and he would for sure be interested. As for Miriam, what possible harm
