Reader's note

A 1984 edition of Witches Chronicle by Bruce Holdsworth; being an account of cruelty and superstition as it happened during the bewitching events surrounding the trial of the Pendle witches in England in 1612. The witches of Pendle are the most famous witches in England. Their fascinating story is typical of many of the witch trials that took place in England and on the Continent in the seventeenth century, but the chronicle of events surrounding this particular group was so well recorded at the time that we are able to closely follow the events almost as they happened. The judges at the assizes instructed their clerk Thomas Potts to make a record of the trials and this was published soon after as a book in 1613 - "The Wonderful Discoveries of Witches in the Counties of Lancaster, with the Arraingement and Triall of Nineteene notorious WITCHES, at the Assizes and generall Gaole Deliuerie, holden at the Castle of Lancaster, upon Munday, the seventeenth of August last 1612." It is in this record that Potts made of the trails that has been the basis for all subsequent stories about the Lancashire, Pendle Witches.
