"To the best of their knowledge the American forest was the last place on earth that was not paying homage to God(140)".
People at that era believed forest is a place where devil lived. In The Scarlet Letter, Nathaniel Hawthorne also described forest as a sinful place. For example, the forest is where Hester and Dimmesdale met up and is also where you can find the black man.
