How can this have happened? Is this town of Salem so corrupted that we have to murder our own people. It’s been three years since my husband has been hanged. But somewhere deep inside of me I respect his ways, because I too believe in the power of someone’s name and the reputation that it holds. He just cared more about his name than life itself. The moment Abigail came to work in my house I knew something was strange about her. She was a great liar and very smart too. But apparently not smart enough. Whenever she would make dinner she would use her own ingredients, then lie and say that they are mine. I would ask her to wash the dishes and she wouldn’t use any effort. I could have fired her immediately. But for some reason, I held back. But there was another problem. And my husband is involved in it. I remember the times when they would talk alone in a room for hours at a time. How do I know? Because I was waiting outside the door listening to all the whispers. My husband would deny being in a room alone with her and I couldn’t in gods name understand why. The most I would do to him is giving him a nice slap across face. And then make him promise me he’ll never do it again. Unfortunately he failed to confess. I was forced to fire Abigail. Little did I know, she would return and ruin my family along with the town’s truthfulness.
All I have left of him now is a tombstone with his name on it. He meant everything to me. You would think that Abigail would be trialed for all the things that she had done. But she wasn’t. Her and her friends fled from the town and the town never bothered bringing her back. She’s probably causing trouble in some other town by now. Sometimes I look back and think of how this all started. This doll here is what caused them to accuse me of being a witch. How did this end up in my house. It’s still a mystery how this ended up in the back of this doll. And this is what I keep to remember that I am partially responsible. But I’m still confused. Even though I love John as wide as the horizon can stretch I can’t forgive him for having a relationship with Abigail. Did he not care for me or what I would think? But let’s not speak about the past. Every memory aches. It’s indescribable.
Things have changed around here, but I still don’t have any interest in these changes. I feel that nothing can ever bring John back.
All I do now is cook and clean around the house. Sometimes I don’t even have time to go to church and pray for the health of my children. And my children. My four beloved children. If it weren’t for them I wouldn’t have survived these past few years.
Hear my cry and tell the other towns to think twice before conformity takes control over their lives.

I think that the letter "A" and Pearl are similar in that they both begin something new. "A" is the first letter of the alphabet and is followed by 25 new and different letters. Pearl is the start of a new life for Hester. During Hesters punishment, pearl is the one who helps her get through it. Because she got through it, only joy and happiness follows her.

During the scaffold scenes in the scarlet letter it becomes clear that it is not the best place to be. In the very beginning of the novel, Hester is standing on the stage because she is about to be punished for being an adulteress and having and illegitimate child. The scaffold scenes to come also give off a negative impression. But shockingly, at the end of the novel when reverend Dimmesdale admits his sin, the scaffold becomes a place of honesty and confession.
