 When a Tory from Chester sneaks into Lafayette s tent and steals military documents, Jeremy and Isak give chase. The Tory is injured during a fall from his horse, and is taken back to Lafayette s camp, where he later dies. Finding a letter of introduction to a nearby British commandant, Jeremy decides to pose as the spy, Ben Todd, in order to get inside British headquarters and obtain useful information for the rebels. Unfortunately, Todd s embittered wife shows up and declares that Jeremy is an impostor.
