    William Brandford's wife jumped out of the boat.
    Why did William Brandford's wife jump out of the boat when they were arriving? Brandford's wife probably jumped out of the boat because she realized she made a mistake in going to the new land. She may also not have loved him enough to stay with him. Another possibility could''ve been that she compared both lands and realized what she left at home and regreted leaving. She might have forshadowed many hardships and didn't want to live a hard life.
