Jocelyn is intrigued when the governor asks Samuel to investigate irregularities in the Virginia Company's books possibly caused by the previous governor but she has already antagonized Marshall Redwick and secretary Farlow and, to keep her in her place, they make an example of Verity for belittling Meredith in public, which, due to the overly zealous vicar Whitaker becomes an accusation of witchcraft when Redwick, whom Verity has cursed, falls ill. Dr Priestley and Samuel discover the cause of the illness is a polluted well, allowing Jocelyn to save Verity. She also intervenes by persuading Samuel to pay Henry Sharrow's debt, allowing him to marry Alice, to the annoyance of love-lorn smith James Read, though, in doing so, she makes Redwick and Farlow even more determined to bring her down.
