A digest of recent reports from Bury Herald Leeds Mercury and Norwich magistrates shows rising belief in witches and healing charms. Cases include Mrs Leggett and Mrs Cole at Yar mouth court, a Bradford epilepsy remedy using skull powder, and a Norwich cloaked theft tied to a clever witch Susannah Rix. Scotland and Harris incidents reveal widespread superstition and fear, with a Manish schoolhouse dwindling after a spectral warning.
