BIOGRAPHY
The court records of 1672 tell the tragi-comic history of an incident
in the life of Elizabeth Beauchamp Goodell. It appears that John
S mith, husband of her sister-in-law (also named Elizabeth), had for
years made somewhat crude and amorous advances toward her. In a too
successful attempt t o scandalize the gossips of the Village
neighborhood, she told several women, who came purposefully to ferret
out the details of the affair, a highly colore d version of Smith's
conduct. As a result she found herself the defendant in a suit for
slander brought by Smith, and both of them were hailed before the
magistrate for "uncivil carriage". Smith lost his suit and was
sentenced to b e whipped and to remain in goal until the sentence
should be carried out or pa y a fine of forty shillings. The whipping
was remitted, however, and the inci dent closed with a confession by
Elizabeth that she was "heartily sorry for he r foolish words."
