Having spent several years researching East Lothian witchcraft and allied matters from original sources, I have tried to cut through the claptrap and set out what are likely to have been the actual events, rituals and beliefs. I have summarised the cases in modern English, in chronological order, grouped together into subject areas for comparison and discussion, such as 'malefice', 'lost property', 'healing', and so on. While I express my own opinions and interpretations from time to time, I try most of all to let the cases speak for themselves. 'In This House Angels Four' attempts to reach some sort of conclusion about the practices and beliefs of ordinary folk in East Lothian as regards witchcraft, traditional 'magic', and healing.
