Gunpowder Alley

Saxby was not a physician, surgeon, or apothecary. She was not a witch, a cunning woman, or a female physician. She was a demoniac-consultant. She had an intimate knowledge of bewitchment because she was, herself, being bewitched. All we know about Mistress Saxby comes from Russell’s short claim about what happened when she consulted Saxby in March. She recounted that

above a month agoo she went to Mrs. Saxey in Gunpowder Alley who was forespoken herselfe and that had a booke that cold helpe all those that were forespoken, and that shee wold come and show her the booke and helpe her under God. And further said to this examinate that none but a seminary priest cold cure her.
