In Arthur Miller's "The Crucible," Giles Corey meets a tragic fate when he is pressed to death with heavy stones for refusing to enter a plea during the witch trials. His steadfastness and refusal to betray his principles or name others highlight his integrity in the face of injustice. Corey’s death symbolizes the extreme consequences of the hysteria and corruption in Salem, as well as the importance of personal honor. His final words, "More weight," reflect his defiance against the oppressive system.
