- Mechteld_ten_Ham abstract "Mechteld ten Ham (died 25 July 1605) was an alleged Dutch witch in the city of 's-Heerenberg in the Netherlands. The witch trial which condemned Mechteld took place during a period of hardship for the city, which had suffered under plundering from Spanish troops and from the plague when the witch hysteria spread. People wanted someone they could blame, and Mechteld was a person with different habits and a different personality. She made predictions about the future and about people's health. People said that she had the evil eye. Mechteld herself demanded to be put on trial; it was a custom to try an alleged witch by certain ordeals, and Mechteld was convinced that the trial would prove that she was innocent. One was the ordeal of weight. Another was the ordeal of water. The ordeal of weight was often easy to pass. She wrote to a known critic of witch trials, and thus refused to go through the ordeal of weight. When she was put on trial, however, her tactic proved a miscalculation. People accused her of making animals sick, spoiling crops and destroying marriages with magic. The authorities arrested her and tortured her until she confessed. She was found guilty of sorcery and sentenced to be burned alive at the stake. This sentence was carried out on 25 July 1605. The last witch trial in the Netherlands was the Roermond witch trial in the city of Roermond, where 64 people were burned to death for sorcery in 1613.".
