And if we try to do it, and someone does not cooperate(besides the cobbler), then we will know that that person is the bear.
Two problems with that:

1. The Cobbler is unlikely to be cooperative. S/he doesn't care who wins.
2. I am not sure if the Village does win if the Cobbler is the last one left standing.

I hope that everyone will, by now, have realised why it is that I am innocent. I could preside over a mass lynching, but I would be uncomfortable doing so with at least two, and possibly three, Days left to find the Bear. Perhaps we could visit the idea to-Morrow. I might die tonight, but the Bear would be taking a great risk in killing me.
