Linda, Somewhere I have a transcription of John Proctor's will and a transcription of a letter written by John Proctor regarding his son who had also been charged with witchcraft. I also have a transcription of a letter written by Elizabeth Proctor. I will be happy to send them to you in a private email as I think they may make too large an email to be posted to the list. I agree that it is time to get back on the subject of the list and not continue to harp on semantics. I believe everyone is entitled to feel however they wish but I think everything worthwhile has probably been said and now we are "beating a dead horse." It was an interesting discussion for a time though. Bonnie
