On April 22, 1650, Agnes Glen, a resident of Dalry in Ayrshire, was brought before the authorities to face accusations of witchcraft. Her legal proceedings are documented under case number C/LA/3196, a reflection of the intense scrutiny directed toward suspected individuals during this period of Scottish history. As the judicial process moved toward her trial, recorded under T/LA/1761, the evidentiary weight of her case relied significantly upon her own testimony.
During the course of her examination, Agnes provided a formal confession to the authorities. While the specific content of the charges against her remains tethered to the bureaucratic records of the era, the existence of this confession confirms that she acknowledged the allegations brought forward during her trial. Her case remains a documented part of the judicial response to witchcraft in mid-seventeenth-century Scotland, capturing a singular moment in the historical record of Dalry.
