George Burroughs

The Reverend George Burroughs was a former pastor of Salem Village.  He was brought back from Boston in 1692 to stand trial for practicing witchcraft.  Your job will be to examine the specific websites included in the resource bank in order to gain an understanding of George Burroughs as he is recorded historically.  This is potentially different than how he is mentioned in Miller's play.  Your job will be to take on his voice and write from his point of view about the trials and his eventual fate.
