The Witch of Prague

CHAPTER XV[*] [*] The deeds here described were done in Prague on the twenty-first day of February in the year 1694
1/31

.

Lazarus and his accomplice Levi Kurtzhandel, or Brevimanus, or "the short-handed," were betrayed by their own people.

Lazarus hanged himself in prison, and Levi suffered death by the wheel--repentant, it is said, and himself baptized.

A full account of the trial, written in Latin, was printed, and a copy of it may be seen in the State Museum in Prague.

The body of Simon Abeles was exhumed and rests in the Teyn Kirche, in the chapel on the left of the high altar.
