Giles Correy and I
“I am asked the question, i am old enough to answer it!” said the sassy Giles Correy from The Crucible when he was interrupted in court. Giles Correy was pressed to death in the Salem witch trials for not admitting/ denying himself as a witch, the only thing he did was call for more weight to be stacked on his body. Before Giles was accused of witchcraft he was arrested for contempt of the court because he refused to give up his friend’s name, and even before that he was a sue happy man whom had an extensive knowledge of the court. Giles Correy and I have several comparable traits in that we are stubborn, sassy, and loyal individuals.

Danforth said that giles would be held in contempt of court, and that’s when giles matter-of-factly responded saying ‘This is merely a trial, the court is not in session.” which got him in trouble because Danforth then said “The court is now in session!”at that ultimately lead to his arrest, which later resulted in him getting accused of witchcraft then hanged. I relate to him because I once too got an attitude when my father tried to question my knowledge on the Tim Burton film Beetlejuice ( keep in mind I have watched the movie almost every day since I was in fourth grade). My dad believed that the main character wore his famous black and white striped suit in almost all the scenes in, when really he actually only wears it for a brief scene in the movie just before the end. I of course had to tell him he was wrong, which led to an argument, and that led to me pulling out google and searching up the different outfits of beetlejuice. My dad got mad because I was talking back so i got sent to my room. Another time I proved to have an attitude is when my father asked me where his towel was and i said ‘I don’t know, it’s not my job to keep track of it,’ and it ended up being in the load of laundry i put in the
