Salem Village to Get a School: Salem Witch Trials Daily April 5, 1692.mp4

The latest updates from the Salem Witch Trials. We check in on Salem Village, where a committee purchases land for a future school building, and head to Boston, where former Salem Village minister Deodat Lawson returns home after his stay and finishes writing his account of events, with a pamphlet expected soon. We also report from the Boston Jail, where keeper John Arnold buys two blankets for an infant confined with her mother, witchcraft suspect Sarah Good.
