Cry Witch at Colonial Williamsburg
The polished wood gleams in the glow of flickering candles. It’s nighttime, and little moonlight breaks through the circular window panes in their cream-colored frames.
Several dozen visitors have gathered in the courtroom of Colonial Williamsburg‘s red-brick Capitol building to serve as the jury in a recreated trial of Grace Sherwood, the “Virginia witch”. In the dimness, their 21st-century garb is slightly shrouded, and the atmosphere seems at least a little like 1706.
A midwife who sometimes sported pants, Mrs. Sherwood did not remarry after her husband’s death in 1701. She was tried several times on charges like bewitching her neighbors’ crops. Then in 1706, a local farmer named Luke Hill accused the 46-year-old of practicing witchcraft and thus causing his wife to miscarry. On July 10 of that year, Mrs. Sherwood’s hands were tied, and she was thrown from a boat into the Lynnhaven River. Able to swim, Mrs. Sherwood untied her hands and rose to the surface — thus proving that she was a witch. (Drowning would have established her innocence.) Court records indicate that she spent seven or eight years in gaol as punishment.
Colonial Williamsburg’s mock trial takes place after this water test. Because she’s charged with a capital crime, the trial takes place in the Capitol, presided over by the Royal Governor. Her water test failure is presented as evidence of her guilt, as is the statement that her devil’s marks (birthmarks) did not bleed when punctured and testimony that she never takes Communion. Mr. Hill testifies that, after Mrs. Sherwood visited his farm, his “pigs began to act peculiar-like and die”.
Unfortunately for Mrs. Sherwood, defendants cannot be sworn, and anything she says in her own defense cannot be counted as evidence. On the other hand, there is no protection from self-incrimination. There is neither the presumption of innocence nor the recognition of the (derived) right to face one’s accuser. When the prosecutor declares that Mrs. Hill, appearing as a witness, is “afraid to be in the same room as the witch”, the Governor-judge directs Mrs. Sherwood not to look at Mrs. Hill and assures the witness that God will protect her.
Despite the fact that this trial mocked fundamental principles of Western justice, natural science, and common sense, Mrs. Sherwood was convicted 44-13 by the jury and sentenced to hang. (Your humble blogger was among the 13.) According to a CW guide, juries convict Mrs. Sherwood in about 80 percent of the mock trials. She is, however, entitled to appeal to the Governor.
In real life, history suggests that Mrs. Sherwood returned to her farm after serving her time in gaol and lived there until her death c. 1740. England’s last law against witchcraft was repealed in 1951.
On July 10, 2006, Governor Tim Kaine informally pardoned Mrs. Sherwood.
I fell in love with travel on a trip to Mexico when I was nine years old. Since then, I’ve travelled the globe from Israel to El Salvador. I’ve skied the Swiss Alps and hiked national parks like Acadia, Zion, Shenandoah, and Virgin Islands. I’ve marvelled at masterpieces in the Prado, the Uffizi, the Huntington, and the National Gallery of Art. I’ve stayed in a cabin on a mountaintop in Norway and on a kibbutz along the Sea of Galilee, and been kicked out of the Ritz at the Place Vendôme. I’ve taken cooking classes from New England to the Caribbean, and watched a chef prepare traditional shakshuka in the kitchen of his restaurant in Tel Aviv. I weave historical research and my personal experiences together in writing this blog. I hope you find it helpful. Read more …

Reviews for "The Secret to Sports Success: Adixas Adikette Magic Lime"
1. Samantha - 2/5 stars - The Adixas Adikette Magic Lime shoes were a disappointment for me. Firstly, the lime green color was much brighter in person than it appeared online, and it was too flashy for my taste. Secondly, the fit was uncomfortable and I found the shoe to be too narrow for my feet. The materials used also felt cheap and did not offer much support. Overall, I would not recommend these shoes if you are looking for comfort and a more subtle color option.
2. Mike - 3/5 stars - Although the Adixas Adikette Magic Lime shoes have a unique and eye-catching design, I found them to be lacking in terms of quality. The stitching on the shoes started to come undone after only a few weeks of wear, which was disappointing for such a relatively expensive pair of shoes. Additionally, the cushioning and support provided by the shoes were not sufficient for prolonged use, making them uncomfortable for long walks or workouts. While they may be suitable for occasional use or as a fashion statement, I would not recommend these shoes for anyone seeking durability and comfort.
3. Emily - 1/5 stars - I was extremely disappointed with the Adixas Adikette Magic Lime shoes. Not only did they look different in person compared to the pictures online, but the overall quality was subpar. The shoe felt flimsy and lacked the proper support that I need for my active lifestyle. On top of that, the lime green color was too bright and clashed with many of my outfits. I ended up returning the shoes and opting for a different pair that offered both style and functionality. Overall, these shoes did not meet my expectations and left me feeling let down.
