Payton's week! 

This week Payton brings us the story of Helen Duncan. Helen was a well known medium in Scotland during a time when spiritualism thrived. Although opinion on her abilities varied, Helen was a target of the Royal Navy, and actually sent to jail under the Witchcraft Act of 1735. Helen was one of the last people tried as a witch and her trial was a huge contributor to the law being repealed.
