"Do you think he wants to hire a man?"
"Oh, no, he does not want help. He is poor now; all he had is burned up."
"Who did it?
"We do not know, but think it was an angel from heaven, and every one is glad."
"Why were they glad?"
"Oh, because he killed the minister. That was last year, and I was not here."
"How did he do it?"
"Well, he did not kill him, but he got some folks down in Salem to come up and arrest him and they hanged him."
"Did he kill anyone else?"
"Yes, he killed James Burroughs and Fanny, too, so Mr. Shepherd says."
