Betty Parris only pretends to be ill in the first act of the play, 'The Crucible'. She does so after her father Rev.

What does your name in the town is entirely white is it not?

Refering to the play The Crucible written by Arthur Miller - a comment made by Rev. Parris when he confronts Abigail about her reputation around town (asking if it is a pure/good one). "Your name in the town - it is entirely white, is it not?"


What is the source of the conflict between Parris and Proctor in the crucible?

Parris is a greedy and selfish minister which angers Proctor. He wants gold candlesticks (symbol of his greed) and the deed to his home which illustrates his desire to have importance and wealth in the Salem town. Also Proctor dislikes him because of the topics he discusses in church (mortgages, deeds, hell) and this causes Parris to believe Proctor is creating a party against him within the Church.


How does Abigail compromise her uncle's job in the crucible?

Abigail's uncle, Reverend Parris, is viewed as the town's spiritual leader; it is his sole duty to bring God into their lives. With the news of witches and magic making an appearance, the town looked to Parris with hopes that he would have an answer and would know what to do. Abigail compromised his position because she was caught dancing in the forest and drinking chicken's blood (which was viewed as witch craft in the 1600's). When word of this got out, Parris' position in the town was compromised because the "holy leader" had a niece who was accused of witchcraft herself. With this happening, the town began to question whether or not they could truly trust their Reverend.
