Abstract
Colonial courts also play a significant role in the life of the town. Records of court proceedings provide an intriguing glimpse into colonial life and what was important to people at the time. Historian Helena Wall recounts one such case, a 17th century law suit that was filed when a child called a neighbor woman a "mangle stick." The incident is re-enacted in the town hall of old Salem.
