"Sometimes it is like a hog, and sometimes like a great dog."
"What did it say to you?"
"The black dog said, 'Serve me.' But I said, 'I am afraid.' He said if I did not, he would do worse to me."
"And what did you say to it?"
"'I will serve you no longer.' Then he said he would hurt me."
"What else have you seen?"
"Two cats—a red cat and a black cat."
"And what did they say to you?"
"They said, 'Serve me.'"
"When did you see them?"
"Last night. And they said, 'Serve me.' But I said I would not."
"What service?"
"Hurt the children."
"Did you not pinch Elizabeth Hubbard this morning?"
"The man brought her to me, and made me pinch her."
"Why did you go to Thomas Putnam's last night, and hurt his child?"
"They pull and haul me, and make me go."
