Abigail Betty's cousin also wanted to be part of practicing witchcraft and I think that's when her uncle thought maybe she had done something to Betty and he told her to cure her. I believe that the truth about Abigail was that she wasn’t a witch .Betty wanted to do witchcraft . Although Abigail had seemed a little scared .One day both of them had gone to the forest and danced ,they had went to the forest ,because the village people believed that when you dance your dancing with the devil.. A few days later I believe they were asking Abigail and Betty what they were doing there and they had said that Mercy was there too.

Anthony used to influence people as she campaigned for women's rights. Not only did she fought for women's rights, but she helped bring the abolition of slavery.

Susan B. Anthony protested for suffrage of African Americans and she helped them achieve the Fourteenth Amendment for their right to vote. After seeing this Amendment pass, she thought that it should have extended to include all American citizens, so she voted in the 1872 election of Ulysses S. Grant illegally. Susan B. Anthony recited this speech to dozens of people around the country to persuade them that her vote should have been legal. She practiced reciting this speech to perfect it before she spoke it to persuade a jury. Unfortunately, the judge decided before the trail that Susan B. Anthony was guilty and did not allow her to speak at her own trial because she was a woman (National Susan B. Anthony House). This is one of her most powerful

He was now focusing on designing an “Analytic Engine”, which would be a machine that could perform calculations without user input. Ada immediately grasped the potential significance of such a machine and impressed Babbage with her ideas on the concept of a calculating engine. Her friend, Sophia Frend, later wrote, “Miss Byron, young as she was, understood its working, and saw the great beauty of the invention” (Toole 51). Ada requested that Babbage send her the blueprints for the machine so that she could further understand it. This was the beginning of a long intellectual relationship between the two and they would continue to correspond and collaborate for the next nine years.
