Text source

Charles Honey/Hånni was a Scottish servant boy who worked in Richard Wood's [SSNE 8265] house. He was noted in the Stockholm consistory records in October 1614 as user of magic. Apparently he was found in possession of a magic arts book, which was subsequently confiscated, and Charles himself imprisoned briefly. It appears that he had already been censured for such behaviour before!
