BR2-8 The Witches Of Pendle

I read The Witches of Pendle. This story is about 1600s in England. Jennet Device was poor. In 1634 spring, Jennet was in prison with twenty women suspected as a witch. She had no hope for her future. One day Mr. Webster came to see Jennet.

After Jennet met Mr. Webster, she remembered her childhood. She lived with her mother, sister, brother, grandmother and dog. Jennet's father was dead. It caused the family to be poorer. When Jennet was 9 years old, her life began to change. Her mother and grandmother were ill. Her sister, Alizon went out to get some bread. Jennet followed her with dog. They met fat and rich man. His name was John Law. Alizon asked him to give her money to buy some foods. But John didn't answer. So Alizon asked again. John finally answered but it made Alizon angry. She ordered her dog to get John. John fell down and he couldn't move on himself. Jennet called the villagers. They helped John and said Alizon a witch.

Roger Nowell who was rich and important man in Lancashire came to see Alizon. Jennet's family went Malkin Tower and asked some questions. In the question, Alizon admitted she cursed John. Mr. Nowell wanted to meet Jennet's grandmother. Mr. Nowell and his men came to see Old Dendike. She admitted she is a witch and she can kill the people. Alizon and Old Dendike were caught in Lancaster Castle.

April 10th in Jennet's house, there are many people, Jennet's family and some friends and poor people. They drunk and ate and talked. They also planned to help Alison and Old Dendike and curse the guards.

Jennet was afraid of that. She decided to go Mr. Nowell's house and talk the truth. Her brother, James followed her. Mr. Nowell's welcomed them and gave bread and milk. Jennet told Mr. Nowell to witch. But James admitted he is a witch in front of Mr. Nowell.

April 27th the guards took Jennet's mother and James to Lancaster Castle. Jennet lived with Mr. Nowell. Her life was getting better. But one day Jennet met her family, they were thin and dirty. Old Dendike was already dead.

Unfortunately Jennet was suspended as a witch, because of her family name. She was put in prison. She waited the day she dies. (388 words/ 6242 words)

BR2-7 The President's Murderer

I read The President's Murderer. I think this story is a kind of irony or something.

Story: Alex Dinnon was running in the night. He was running away from the police. Felix(inspector) was chasing him. But Alex somehow could run away from them.

The next morning, Alex was from south of the prison. There were no people. So he decided to sleep a little. But when he opened his eyes, there was an old woman. She said "What are you doing in my field, young man?" Alex said "I'm sorry". Surprisingly she invited him to her house. The old woman's name was Marta. Marta serves some foods. Suddenly she said "How did you escape from prison?". Alex's face went white. But Marta laughed. She wasn't afraid of president's murder. She hated the police. She treated Alex one night.

The next morning, Felix and his subordinate Adam came Marta's house. They asked about Alex. But Marta didn't say about Alex. Felix and Adam didn't get anything. Chief of Police got angry, because the president really wants to put Alex in prison again.

After Alex left Marta's house, he moved quickly. He wondered where to go now. But he were hungry and he had some money from Marta. So he decided to go to shop to get food. There were many people. And he waited behind them. People looked at him, and a man went out quickly. Alex wanted to run but he waited because of starving. The boy came up to Alex and said "There are two police men in the street and they are coming here". But Alex couldn't escape at that time. But the shopkeeper called him and told another door. When Alex get out form the shop, the shopkeeper said "I never help the police-they're all bad".

Alex left for his wife's house. He met his wife. When they were talking, his Olivia(Alex's wife) noticed Alex's hands. Alex's hand was cut　and burned, because he didn't say anything about the president's murderer. In fact Alex was not the president's murderer. The police knew the true president's murderer. They were afraid Alex tells the president's murderer.

The police found the Alex's house. They brought many army’s and went to the Alex's house. Alex decided to leave the house. Of cause he knew there are many police and armys around the house. Alex went out the house. He was shot by army.

Felix was wondering. Felix found out what a cruel the police are. He argued with chief. But the chief didn't listen his idea. Felix disappointed his work and left.(431 words/5689 words)
