Confident in the validity of spectral evidence,  Stoughton relentlessly sought to purge the community of accused witches. On June 8, he  signed and affixed his wax seal to this warrant, setting the execution date of Bridget Bishop. Sheriff George Corwin, nephew of magistrate Jonathan Corwin and son-in-law of Justice  Bartholomew Gedney, was charged with bringing Bishop “to the place of execution” between 8 a.m. and noon and hanging her there. On June 10, at the bottom of the document, Corwin reported he completed his task.</p>"},{"label":"Language","value":["English"]},{"label":"Subject","value":["Stoughton, William, 1632-1701","Hubbard, Elizabeth, 1675-","Herrick, George, approximately 1658-1695","Curwen, George, 1666-1696","Bishop, Edward, Sr., approximately 1620-1705","Bishop, Bridget (Oliver), -1692","Newton, Thomas, 1660-1721","Lewis, Mercy, approximately 1675-","Walcott, Mary, 1675-approximately 1730","Witchcraft--Massachusetts--Salem--History--17th century.","Putnam, Ann, Jr., 1679-approximately 1715","Williams, Abigail, approximately 1681-","Danvers (Mass.)--History","Salem (Mass.)--History","Trial transcripts","Trials (Witchcraft)--Massachusetts--Salem"]},{"label":"Identifier","value":"DEP 01, Box 2, Folder 31"},{"label":"Provenance","value":"Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court Archives"},{"label":"Dimensions","value":"21.1 x 34.6 cm"},{"label":"Format","value":["legal instruments","judicial records"]},{"label":"Creator","value":["Massachusetts.
