The middle of Oklahoma is a long way from Salem, Mass., and it had been more than 200 years since the witch trials. But an elderly Seminole Indian woman was condemned to death as a sorceress in Wewoka in 1880 and came within two hours of facing a firing squad. She had been accused of causing a long-sick woman to choke to death -- by blowing on a piece of bread given to the ill victim, who tried to eat it. The story of the Oklahoma witchcraft case was told in the 1923 memoirs of former mission teacher Antoinette C....
