The Monstrous Birth of Mary Dyer
Mary Dyer gave birth to a stillborn baby in 1637. Anne Hutchinson was put on trial for lying about or defaming her husband's ministers. She testified that she had received religious revelations from God, equivalent to those revealed to Abraham by the Bible. The charges were not proven and Hutchinson was found guilty of perjury.
