She has stolen his money and vanished.
mercy lewis and abigail williams have stolen parris's money and disappeared
Parris exhibits his self-centeredness by focusing on the implications of Abigail's disappearance for his own reputation and position rather than expressing concern for her well-being or the larger consequences for the community. He fears that her flight will undermine his authority and the credibility of the court, highlighting his preoccupation with personal security over justice. This self-serving attitude reveals his priorities, as he is more concerned about potential backlash than the moral implications of the witch trials.

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.
