pearly had dared to contradict the late, great charles w. upland. feelings were still simmering a decade later, in 1911, when the essex institute announced a walking tour that would begin at the lower ledges where pearly would speak about why he felt that was the site of the hangings. the salem evening news printed an article which the newspaper titled "actual site of which hanging." in the following day, they printed an irate letter to the editor, from one william nevins, who had also written on the trials. he was shocked. shocked that the essex institute, of all places, would give any credence to pearly's theories, which were no better than the yellow journalism plaguing our newspapers of today. [laughter] marilyn: this was yellow antiquarianism. [laughter] marilyn: not to be confused with the working conclusions of real antiquarian, i'm quoting, by charles w. upland. and there were plenty of reasons to conclude that the summit was the actual site, but nevins didn't have the time to tell you what they were. [laughter] marilyn: nevertheless, 200 pe

nevertheless, 200 people attended pearly's talk. in 19 1 he published a longer article why he believed it was the site. he had interviews from local elders who believed it was the site, including the future president john adams. the land descriptions in deeds and wills of the area which matched the oral traditions, and most especially the logic of the lower location as being more visible and of easier access than the summit for a public execution, which after all has to be public. in 1936 the city of salem purchased two adjacent lots on the lower ledges that were available for $500 a piece and designated this whole as witch memorial land. a rather unfortunate title, and it was to be a public park forever. forever is right in the deeds. however, the site was not marked. it was the depression, after all. since then anonymous parties have dumped trash on it. the site, the neighborhood and a great swath of salem were nearly wiped out by a proposed extension of i-95 in the 1960s, the same decade when historic salem incorporated, proposed

we as a team confirmed what pearly did. >> well, i only had ten minutes. >> i'm sorry. one spot truly associated with the trials is the home of judge corwin, though even that building has been substantially altered from its 17th century form. as robert weir notes, one couldn't actually see much in salem other than gazing upon markers, noting where certain buildings once stood. the lack of extant structures or single museum responsible for telling the history of the witch trials has left the telling that important narrative to a diverse set of sites that range from attractions to more serious attempts at historical inquiry. still, public history studies indicate in the absence of material culture connections, the actual events of 1692 have likely been overwhelmed by other parts of the tourist landscape. in this way, the public history of the witch trials is similar to the public history of slavery. just as slavery has been subordinated to a more marketable and visible "gone with the wind" narrative in plantation museums across the american south, the history of 1692 has

rediscover that he had identified as the temporary grave with some of the victims were thrown in which pearly had clearly described as having been since cleared out so there was no artifacts in them. it prompted discussion of examination and a memorial but nothing came of that either. the contractor who owned the land abutting the city land offered to sell it to any historical organization or cut it up. neat neither happened. the city sold the park to a high-rise developer until neighbors reminded them what the word forever meant. thank goodness for them. in 1997 i found a clue in the trial papers he had not mentioned, the notes for which rebecca aims is hearing being brought to salem and she is left in the house below the hill while -- from where she was she told the magistrates only hours later she could see folks at the executi execution. curly had already done the massive research and he knew where the houses were on that stretch of road. there weren't too many of them. she had to have been looking at that, not the summit from where she was. more recently working with the above informatio

>> a lot of the books that i have read about the witch trials and so forth, use as their sources pearlies, four volume history of salem and i believe it's up ton. do you have any sense of what primary documents they were able to look at? >> probably a lot of the same ones probably just ones in the es sex county archives. wood wards records of salem witchcraft came out in 1864. so that was probably the definitive published resource at the time. they probably also could walk into the courthouse and actually see the documents. but wood ward a two volume set in a couple decades ago. republished it in a two volume in one. also you can get that as a pdf at archive.org. all the stuff you can get now in free public domain things. but those earlier antikwarns. they did a lot to collect things. and sort of made up some stuff. if you heard about the girls dancing. tituba teaching them voodoo and dancing in the woods. that there's no information before he tells that story. we're like, what? there's just absolutely nothing before that. you would think there would be something. he came up with this. so
