For this assignment I have chosen to do Reverend Hale. In the beginning of the play he was a “proud young man” who thought that this was nothing more than an errand (Miller 1146). As the story progresses so does his character. He began this story with the thought that he was going for a small trip and would be quickly returning home but he soon learns that what was to be a “Simple errand” would soon become a unjust killing spree of the court.

An issue that was addressed in the story was fairly similar to what I had experienced in the past, where the boy in the story relied on others to achieve what he wanted at the end. This was displayed throughout the story when the father told his son that if he the son wanted to inherit his wealth he would have to earn a rupee from the labor of his own hands.
