witch hunters in Salem all hell broke loose. During the trials Parris is sure to testify against every defendant leaving no one pure. Parris is so corrupt that when Francis Nurse brings a petition with 91 names on it‚ a petition to set Rebecca‚ Goody Proctor‚ and Martha Corey free Parris demands that all those on the list be called in for questioning.

Proctor’s great dilemma change during this play? Proctor and his Dilemma is very interesting because all his Dilemmas are pretty much a sequel to the first.
