Massachusetts‚ during the late 1600’s‚ more than 200 people were accused of witchcraft and 24 of those 200 people who were accused were killed.

How will I be remembered? This a subject that I’ve thought about a lot during my life. How do I want to be remembered? In my youth I wanted to be remembered as a hero of historic proportions‚ a man who people looked up to as I had looked up to my childhood heroes. A man whose strenth and deeds of daring would live forever. Later‚ in my teens‚ I realized that being considered heroic probably wasn’t everything it was made out to be.
