Excerpt from Mary Schweidler, the Amber Witch: The Most Interesting Trial for Witchcraft Ever Known, Printed From an Imperfect Manuscript by Her Father, Abraham Schweidler, the Pastor of Coserow, in the Island of Usedom Tan origin of our biographer cannot be traced with any degree of certainty, owing to the loss of the first part of his manuscript. It is, however, pretty clear that he was not a Pomeranian, as he says he was in Silesia in his youth, and mentions relations scattered far and wide, not only at Hamburg and Cologne, but even at Antwerp; above all, his south-german language betrays a foreign origin, and he makes use of words Which are, I believe, peculiar to Swabia. He must, however, have been living for a long time in Pomerania at the time he wrote, as he even more frequently uses low-german expressions, such as occur in contemporary native Pomeranian writers.
