Nan
The fortuneteller wanders by Mr. B’s Lincolnshire estate one day and offers to tell the fortune of Mrs. Jewkes, Pamela, and Nan. She predicts that Mrs. Jewkes will find a husband but that Pamela won’t and will instead die in childbirth. Pamela is horrified, but it turns out the fortuneteller was just a ruse that Mr. Longman created to warn Pamela about Mr. B’s plan to entrap her with a sham-marriage.
