I agree, gmw - Jeremiah was an interesting character and he clearly had a bit of a sixth sense, saying to Grace "I don't like the feel of things" and wanting her to leave the Kinnear household and travel with him. You can see why setting up as a medical clairvoyant, trading in Mesmerism and Magnetism would have suited him down to the ground. Atwood suggests that things got out of his control when Grace was hypnotised.
Did you find that section of the book persuasive? I thought it quite a neat explanation of how things had happened, as I mentioned above.
