Elizabeth Clarke (c. 1565–1645) was the first woman persecuted by the Witchfinder General, Matthew Hopkins in 1645 in Essex, England. She was accused of witchcraft by local tailor John Rivet. Local magistrates appointed John Stearne and Hopkins to investigate. This led to further accusations and the deaths of up to two hundred people. She was a woman over eighty with only one leg, who confessed after being deprived of sleep for many nights. Matthew Hopkins also claimed he saw her 'evil helpers', one of which was a baby. She was then hanged.

Ufology is archaic prose by way of sound. It is not unlike a collection of unfiltered Brothers Grim stories, which in this case, revolve around UFO mythoses. Each passage unfolds much like folk tales told around the summer camp fire in some dense alpine forest, wearing your sense of speculation down the further you listen, until you finally start to look around your dark surroundings and up to the sky for what may or may not be there. fran3000
