Case Notes
A very complicated case that moved back and forth from Edinburgh to Dysart during the course ofher two trials. Definite factional politics at play amongst the bailies and ministers of Dysart. There is a source listed by MacDonald that we have not checked, which records a date of 30/8/1643.
