The village seems untainted from my investigations - evidently the Grace of God is pure here. However, a small group of villagers are suspicious about the local herbalist, Marcus Apesley. I must confess I find nothing impure about the man, but I must question him anyway. I dispatched Rupert and one of the knights to bring him to me, where I will interrogate him tomorrow.
