Notes: Later trial investigation in 1725. No details of accusations but Mr George Duncan still involved and matter referred to the steward/civil magistrate. Entry records reply from steward stating that he could find nothing that could infer the crime of witchcraft, but that she was a deluder of the people and so he intended to proceed against her.
