How power switched in Salem was very drastic. Paris doing doesn’t want to lose his power and he will give up his own flesh and blood before he converts to noting. He is willing to tell himself that witch craft doesn’t exist before saving his daughters life. Abby doesn’t want to be seen as the town hoe because if that is how she’s labeled her love John may not want her. She also holds power in the group that she is in. She threaten Mary to never speak of the night they were dancing or she’ll crush her skull. Mrs. Proctor has gained power over Abby because at anytime she wants to she can blacken her name. The power in the story over this little town is shifted between many people. Some people like John has power one person that can effect them in a large why. Some other people such as Paris is loosing their power and is willing to lie and kill to keep it. The power once belonged to one person and as the story goes on the power shifts between person to person no matter the age. The sex of the person doesn’t matter either.
