Hannah Tupper is the witch and a good friend of Kit and also Nat Eaton.
Foreshadowing in the book is "I am going over to see Hannah Tupper," she announced, trying to sound matter-of-fact."The witch? Have you lost your senses, Kit?" Judith was scandalized."(Page 95 in my book) That is foreshadowing because it shows that Kit befriends Hannah but many People don't like Hannah, so when the people figure out Kit befriends Hannah, they will try to give consequences.
one example of irony in the witch of blackbird pond is that the Puritans left England to have religious freedoms in the colonies. But they are expecting everyone to be Puritans... hypocritical mutch. The irony in it is that you expect everyone in the new land to have religious freedoms but the Puritans are persecuting Hannah Tupper mainly because she is a Quaker. They branded her and they tax her for not coming to the meetings. Even if Hannah showed up to the meetings she would not be welcome so she is being taxed for something they don't want her to go to but she's supposed to go to. The Puritans are supposed to follow the Bible which says to show compassion to everyone. Not just people like themselves. You would expect the Puritans to accept Hannah but they don't and spread rumors that she is a witch. I hope this helps.
