In Arthur Miller's play "The Crucible," Elizabeth Proctor is brought in to corroborate John Proctor's claims about Abigail Williams.

Mary Warren was brought in to corroborate John Proctor's claims about Abigail Williams in Arthur Miller's play "The Crucible." She serves as a key witness who can testify to the events in the courtroom, specifically regarding the girls' deceit and the false accusations of witchcraft. However, her testimony is ultimately undermined by the intense pressure and manipulation from Abigail and the other girls.
John Proctor cannot prove what Abigail told him because their private conversation occurred in secrecy, with no witnesses to corroborate his claims. Additionally, Abigail is skilled at manipulating situations to her advantage, making it difficult for Proctor to convince others of her deceitful behavior. The societal norms and the power dynamics in Salem, where Abigail holds significant influence, further complicate his ability to reveal the truth. Ultimately, the lack of tangible evidence leaves Proctor's word against Abigail's, undermining his credibility.
