Rebecca died in Cambridge prison. Though no records have been found it is generally believed she was awaiting trial for witchcraft. This was at a time of witch hysteria in many areas of New England besides Salem. The fact that her husband was an upstanding important person in society, rather than casting doubt on the charge of witchcraft, gave more credence to it. Richard Weisman in "Witchcraft, Magic and Religion in 17th Century Massachusetts" explains that many of the people accused and executed for witchcraft were of high standing in the community. This fact supposedly made their evil deeds all the more powerful.
