Just reading about how a book of Scottish witches from the 16-1700s has just been put online, and I'm reminded of the last witch in this area to have been killed, the witch of Monzie.
The story was a wealthy landowner stopped by her hut, for reasons unknown, and later discovered that his expensive knife and fork were missing.
Clearly the wicked witch had stolen them with sorcery. So he accused her of witchcraft.
Then it transpired that he found the knife and fork back at his mansion.
Clearly the wicked witch had put them back with sorcery. And she was burnt at the stake.
Rich people have always been arseholes.
