The record
Abraham Cummings collected testimony from people who said a voice identified itself as Nelly Butler at the Blaisdel home around 1800. Mary Bragdon described knocking followed by conversation in the cellar. These historical witness statements survive in print; a modern documentary edition adds scholarly context to a case that also provoked accusations of deception.
