<P> John comes down with typhoid . Dr. Harris, Jr. warns Josiah to stay away from other people to avoid spreading the disease, but Josiah ignores him and soon, others are stricken, including Faith . When Harris blames him, the preacher's faith is shaken; he closes the church and withdraws from the community . Fortunately, John recovers and figures out the cause was tainted well water . Meanwhile, Harris's tireless work on behalf of his patients forges a bond between him and Walesburg . When it seems that Faith is dying, Harris summons the preacher . Josiah's prayers are answered; Faith recovers, and the man of science and the man of faith are reconciled . </P> <P> Josiah is tested again . Leading businessman Lon Backett (Ed Begley) wants to buy the land of freed slave Uncle Famous Prill (Juano Hernandez). He needs the mica deposit to keep his mine in operation, but Uncle Famous refuses to sell . The out - of - work miners trample the old man's crops and scatter his livestock, then when he stubbornly holds out, give him an ultimatum: get out or else . Josiah declines the armed assistance of his old war buddy, Jed Isbell (Alan Hale), and his sons (including an uncredited James Arness), and waits with Uncle Famous for the lynch mob to show up in their Ku Klux Klan costumes . Josiah offers no resistance, but asks the lynch mob to first listen to him read Uncle Famous's will . With each item, he slyly reminds the beneficiary of the old man's past kindness to that individual . Shamed, the mob disperses, Lon Backett leading the way . Afterwards, John picks up the pages Josiah had read and, seeing nothing written on them, says it's not a will . Josiah replies, "It's the will of God ." </P> <Ul> <Li> Joel McCrea as Josiah Doziah Gray </Li> <Li> Ellen Drew as Harriet Gray </Li> <Li> Dean Stockwell as John Kenyon </Li> <Li> Alan Hale, Sr. as Jed Isbell </Li> <Li> Lewis Stone as Dr. Daniel Kalbert Harris, Sr . </Li> <Li> James Mitchell as Dr. Daniel Kalbert Harris, Jr . </Li> <Li> Amanda Blake as Faith Radmore Samuels .
