The most correct answer here is C.

The fact that the governor's wife was accused was one of the reasons that the trials ended but it was a fairly significant one as it signaled to the governor that the paranoia and fear were getting out of control. Also the efforts of Increase and Cotton Mather to prohibit the use of dreams and visions as evidence helped end the trials.
