The sentences of the trial of the warlocks of Chiloé are imparted

The Warlocks of Chiloé, also known as “brujos” or “sorcerers,” are part of the folklore and mythology of Chiloé, an archipelago located in southern Chile. Chiloé has a rich cultural history that incorporates a blend of indigenous Mapuche beliefs and Spanish colonial influences.

According to Chilote folklore, the Warlocks are practitioners of a form of traditional magic that involves a deep connection with nature, spirits, and the supernatural. These sorcerers are believed to have the ability to control and manipulate natural forces, communicate with spirits, and cast spells for both good and malevolent purposes.

The mythology surrounding the Warlocks includes tales of shape-shifting abilities, where they can transform into animals, especially black cats or birds, to carry out their magical deeds. Additionally, it is said that these sorcerers often live in remote areas, such as deep forests or caves, where they perform their rituals and practices in secret.

The cultural significance of the Warlocks of Chiloé has been preserved through oral traditions, storytelling, and local customs. While the stories of the Warlocks are deeply rooted in Chilote folklore, it’s important to note that they are considered part of the region’s mythology and should be understood within the context of cultural beliefs rather than as historical or factual accounts.

The funeral of Queen Victoria takes place.

The funeral of Victoria, Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, Empress of India, occurred on 2 February 1901. It was one of the largest gatherings of European royalty ever to take place.

In 1897, Victoria had written instructions for her funeral, which was to be military as befitting a soldier’s daughter and the head of the army, and white instead of black. On 25 January, Edward VII, the Kaiser and Prince Arthur, Duke of Connaught, helped lift her body into the coffin. She was dressed in a white dress and her wedding veil. An array of mementos commemorating her extended family, friends and servants were laid in the coffin with her, at her request, by her doctor and dressers. One of Albert’s dressing gowns was placed by her side, with a plaster cast of his hand, while a lock of John Brown’s hair, along with a picture of him, was placed in her left hand concealed from the view of the family by a carefully positioned bunch of flowers. Items of jewellery placed on Victoria included the wedding ring of John Brown’s mother, given to her by Brown in 1883. Her funeral was held on Saturday, 2 February, in St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle, and after two days of lying-in-state, she was interred beside Prince Albert in Frogmore Mausoleum at Windsor Great Park.

The state funeral of Queen Victoria took place in February 1901; it had been 64 years since the last burial of a monarch. Victoria left strict instructions regarding the service and associated ceremonies and instituted a number of changes, several of which set a precedent for state funerals that have taken place since. First, she disliked the preponderance of funereal black; henceforward, there would be no black cloaks, drapes or canopy, and Victoria requested a white pall for her coffin. Second, she expressed a desire to be buried as “a soldier’s daughter”. The procession, therefore, became much more a military procession, with the peers, privy counsellors and judiciary no longer taking part en masse. Her pallbearers were equerries rather than dukes, and for the first time, a gun carriage was employed to convey the monarch’s coffin. Third, Victoria requested that there should be no public lying in state. This meant that the only event in London on this occasion was a gun carriage procession from one railway station to another: Victoria having died at Osborne House on the Isle of Wight, her body was conveyed by boat and train to Waterloo Station, then by gun carriage to Paddington Station and then by train to Windsor for the funeral service itself.

The funeral procession
The rare sight of a state funeral cortège travelling by ship provided a striking spectacle: Victoria’s body was carried on board HMY Alberta from Cowes to Gosport, with a suite of yachts following conveying the new king, Edward VII, and other mourners. Minute guns were fired by the assembled fleet as the yacht passed by. Victoria’s body remained on board ship overnight before being conveyed by gun carriage to the railway station the following day for the train journey to London. Victoria broke convention by having a white draped coffin.

Victoria’s children had married into the great royal families of Europe and a number of foreign monarchs were in attendance including Kaiser Wilhelm of Germany as well as the heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne Archduke Franz Ferdinand.
