Answer:

The Continental Congress was a series of legislative bodies, with some executive function, for thirteen of Britain's colonies in North America, and the newly declared United States just before, during, and after the American Revolution. The term "Continental Congress" most specifically refers to the First and Second Congresses of 1774–1781 and may also refer to the Congress of the Confederation of 1781–1789, which operated as the first national government of the United States until being replaced under the Constitution of the United States.

1. They present a statement signed by 91 people as evidence against the girls. The people that signed state that neither Rebecca Nurse or Elizabeth Proctor engaged in witchcraft.

2.  Every time Abigail is at risk of being caught, she fakes something is happening as a diversion. At that time, she pretends to see a spirit bird flying around the courtroom. She claims that it is Mary's spirit.  

3.  He points out that people fear the court: "We cannot blink it anymore. There is a prodigious fear of this court in the country." Proctor is being questioned without a lawyer, causing him to storm out and denounce the proceedings at the end of Act III. Hale also protests that no one can question the court. He says to Parris, "Is everything defense an attack upon the court? Can no one-?"

4. For Deputy Governor Danford, he is stern about his conviction - the court is doing the service of God. He believes that the court is with God, so that anyone against the court is against God. By this, no one can claim the court is wrong and be innocent at the same time.  

5. He excuses Elizabeth's lie about Abigail's affair because it was justifiable cause. He states that she lied to protect her husband.
