And this Examinate passing by them, the said Spirit, called _Tibb_, in the shape of a black Cat, appeared vnto her this Examinate, and said, turne back againe, and doe as they doe: To whom this Examinate said, what are they doing? whereunto the said Spirit said; they are making three Pictures: whereupon she asked whose pictures they were? whereunto the said Spirit said; they are the pictures of _Christopher Nutter_, _Robert Nutter_, and _Marie_, wife of the said _Robert Nutter_: But this Examinate denying to goe back to helpe them to make the Pictures aforesaid; the said Spirit seeming to be angrie, therefore shoue or pushed this Examinate into the ditch, and so shed the Milke which this Examinate had in a Can or Kit: and so thereupon the Spirit at that time vanished out of this Examinates sight: But presently after that, the said Spirit appeared to this Examinate againe in the shape of a Hare, and so went with her about a quarter of a mile, but said nothing to this Examinate, nor shee to it. * * * * * _The Examination and euidence of_ IAMES ROBINSON,[E_b_1] _taken the day and yeare aforesaid._ Before ROGER NOWEL _Esquire aforesaid, against_ ANNE WHITTLE, alias CHATTOX, _Prisoner at the Barre as followeth._ viz.
