              Power is very important in this town. Who has the power is mainly determined by classes. Parris starts off with the power in the story because he is the head of the church. He's power hungry yet weak. He cares more about his image in the town then his own daughter. Who is ill. He refuses to believe that it was witchcraft or the Devil who has caused her to become so ill. He finds it embarrassing that he of all people has to deal with is daughter becoming ill of such things. Then the power seems to rest in the hands of Abigail and her followers. Once the girls come into power they start naming women in the town that they don't like as witches .
