Research Notes:
1680: Hampton undertook its third, and last, prosecution for witchcraft. The case began with the death of a little child - Moses Godfrey, age fifteen months - in July 1680. A jury of inquest found "grounds of suspicion that the said child was murdered by witchcraft." Naming no names, the jurymen nonetheless alluded to a "party suspected," and the following day the court took bond from John FULLER to guarantee that Rachel, his wife, shall appear to answer what shallbe charged against her in point of witchcraft.
Various personal testimonies portrayed her as a generally eccentric figure. Often she had played the role of an expert on witchcraft, describing "how those that were witches did to abroad at night." Once she had named "several persons that she reckoned as witches and wizards in this town." On another occasion she had told a neighbor of "a great rout at Goodman Roby's...when witches had pulled Doctor Reed out of the bed, and with an enchanted bridle did intend to lead a jaunt." Moreover, she had specifically advised the Godfrey family to "lay sweet bays under the threshold, it would keep a witch from coming in." As things turned out, this procedure served to implicate Rachel herself: One of the girls lay bays under the threshold of the back door all the way, and half way of the breadth of the fore door. And soon after Rachel Fuller came to the house. And she had always formerly come in at the back door, which is next her house, but now she went about to the fore door, and though the door stood open, yet she crowded in on that side the bays lay not, and rubbed her back against the door-post so as that she rubbed off her hat. And then she sat down, and made ugly faces, and nestled about... And when she was in the house, she looked under the door where the bays lay.
Rachel Fuller was among the youngest persons ever to stand trial for witchcraft in colonial New England; married just three years, she had two small sons of her own. Surely, the immediate source of the feeling against her was her manifest eccentricity, and her strong interest in all things occult. Such a woman, however youthful, could not but alarm her neighbors.
Particularly unfortunate is the lack of any material on the substantive charges. All that survives is a court order, from September 1680, that "Rachel Fuller and Isabel Towle, being apprehended and commited upon suspicion of witchcraft...still continue in prison til bond be given for their good behavior of #100 apiece, during the Court's pleasure." Both defendants were discharged in the following year. [Ref: Demos Witchcraft p330-332]
