The pamphlet account was called A Detection of damnable driftes, practised by three Witches arraigned at Chelmsforde in Essex at the last Assizes there holden, whiche were executed in Aprill 1579.

Mother Staunton, who had apparently made some pretensions to the practice of magic, was arraigned on several charges.
