ary_, I, 287. [3] William Drage, _Daimonomageia_ (London, 1665), 32-38. [4] _The Lord's Arm Stretched Out, ... or a True Relation of the wonderful Deliverance of James Barrow ..._ (London, 1664). [5] Compare Drage, _op. cit._, 36, 39, 42, with _The Lord's Arm Stretched Out_, 17. Mary Hall, whose cure Drage celebrates, had friends among the Baptists. Drage seems to connect her case with those of Barrow and Hannah Crump, both of whom were helped by that "dispirited people" whom the author of _The Lord's Arm Stretched Out_ exalts. [6] Drage, _op. cit._, 34. [7] _Yorkshire Notes and Queries_, I (Bradford, 1885), 26. But a physician in Winchester Park, whom Hannah Crump had consulted, had asked five pounds to unbewitch her. [8] Drage, _op. cit._, 39. [9] _York Depositions_, 127. [10] See E. Mackenzie, _History of Northumberland_ (Newcastle, 1825), II, 33-36. We do not know that the woman was excused, but the case was before Henry Ogle and we may fairly guess the outcome. [11] Glanvill, _Sadducismus Triumphatus_, pt. ii, 191-209. [12] This is the estimate of him by North, who adds: "and he knew it." Roger North, _Life of the Rt. Hon. Francis North, Baron of Guilford ..._ (London, 1742), 62-63. [13] _Diary and Correspondence of Dr. John Worthington_, II, pt. I (Chetham Soc., no. 36, 1855), 155. [14] In his _Religio Medici_. See _Sir Thomas Browne's Works_ (ed. S. Wilkin, London, 1851-1852), II, 43. [15] _Ibid._, IV, 389. [16] Roger North, _op. cit._, 61. [17] Inderwick has given a good illustration of Hale's weakness of character: "I confess," he says, "to a feeling of pain at finding him in October, 1660, sitting as a judge at the Old Bailey, trying and condemning to death batches of the regicides, men under whose orders he had himself acted, who had been his colleagues in parliament, with whom he had sat on committees to alter the law." _Interregnum_, 217-218. [18] _Hist. MSS. Comm. Reports_, XIV, 9, p. 480. [19] Bishop Burnet, in his _Life and Death of Sir Matthew Hale_ (London, 1682), does not seem to have felt called upon to mention the Bury trial at all. See also Lord Campbell, _Lives of the Chief Justices_ (London, 1849), I, 563-567. [20] Roger North, _op. cit._, 130, 131. The story, as here told, ascribes the event to the year preceding Lord Guilford's first western circuit--_i. e._, to 1674. But this perhaps need not be taken too exactly, and the witch was probably that Elizabe
