about

A cozy work of organ and synthesizer music celebrating the 2023 Battletown Witch Festival and produced in loving memory of the first accused witch to be murdered in the Kentucky Commonwealth.

~

Leah had the terrible misfortune of being both intelligent and beautiful in 1840 Kentucky. She could also heal with herbs, could predict the future, and was whispered to be a witch.

On August 21 of 1840, John and Margaret Ann Smock left to visit the nearby town of Staples. They took two of their three children with them. Why they left their third child home on that day is a question that remains to be answered. When they left, John and Margaret were unaware this would be the last time they would see their daughter Leah.

So on that late Summer day, unknown neighbors tied the 22-year-old's arms and legs and hauled her out to the family's smokehouse. These men, brimming with superstition, stood outside and struck a match. They felt justified as they bore witness to the flames until only silence came from the structure. They left, but that is not the end of Leah's story.
