Notes: She consulted with Reid to destroy David Libbertoun a burgess baxter in Edinburgh. I think Reid was hired to remove a bewitchment, he seemed to be taking off lots of illnesses in the Chrystie household, and guiding the attack on D. Libberton for the Chrysties not himself.

Disease Notes: She supposedly wanted to get someone, and used Reid to do it. Reid was a healer, so this may have been somekind of unwitching thing, because lots of members of her family underwent healing rituals from Reid.
