How does Hale excuse Elizabeth's lie about Abigail's affair with Proctor? What does this reveal about Elizabeth's character in true feelings for Proctor?
He says it is a natural lie and that private vengeance is what Abigail seeks. Elizabeth seeks to protect her husband no matter what.
Discuss Abigail's actions to distract Danforth from Hale's accusations that she is lying.
She pretends to see a bird flying around the courtroom and says it is Mary's spirit.
Proctor:
Mary Warren deposition, Mary Warren made the doll and stuck the needle in it therefore Elizabeth cannot be the one to blame
Giles:
A deposition against Thomas Putnam by a witness who heard Putnam that his daughter for convicting their neighbor to get their land
Francis:
A petition signed by 91 people that prove all their wives are good people and innocent
