P.

[34] Joseph Glanvil, 1636-1680. He was chaplain in ordinary to his

Majesty, and Fellow of the Royal Society. The title of the work here

mentioned is “Saducismus Triumphatus: or Full and Plain Evidence

concerning Witches and Apparitions: with a letter of Dr. Henry More

on the same subject; and an authentic but wonderful Story of certain

Swedish Witches; done into English by Anth. Horneck, Preacher at the

Savoy.” London, 1681. 8vo. 328 pp. Several later editions were issued.

The story of the Swedish witchcrafts contained in this volume is

mentioned by Increase Mather in _Remarkable Providences_, 1684, p. 132,

ed. 1856, and by Cotton Mather in _Wonders of the Invisible World_,

1693, pp. 44, 88. Mr. C. W. Upham, supposing that C. Mather was the

only person in New England, in 1692, who knew of this case, bases an

argument upon it in _Salem Witchcraft and Cotton Mather_, 1869, pp.

34-35.
