i was extremely shocked by the death of Dimmesdale, such sad news in such a small town. Even though Dimmesdale had sinned, he was still a good man and it's sad to see him go. I wish that him and Hester would've had the chance to leave and live a wonderful life together with their daughter but sometimes things happen for a reason. It's just a shame that we don't know what this reason is. Maybe this was Dimmesdale's punishment. Hester was publicly shamed and everyone in town knew of her sins while no one knew of Dimmesdale's. Maybe death was his form of punishment for not coming clean. I hope that my descendants here of this story and learn that lying or not coming clean about something will only result in a horrible consequence, maybe even death. After all, honesty is the best policy.
Leaving and going to Europe sounds like a perfect plan for Hester and Dimmesdale. They could have a good family life life this way, and Pearl would be able to grow up with a father. No one in Europe would know about the situation with Hester and Dimmesdale, so they would be able to live without punishment and in Europe. I think that moving to Europe would be the best thing for Pearl and maybe if she knew thy Dimmesdale is her father she wouldn't be so skeptical of him.
