Roger Chillingworth’s Journal

Doctor Roger Chillingworth July 21st 1646 The ministers wellness is fading. I dismay that if I do not receive a root to his ailment soon that he may die, leaving me with by a meaningful forbearing. by chance it is Hester Prynne that is the problem. She is the evil influence that is taking the coda little bit of feel he has go forth. I am ashamed to come back that I was even minutely relate with her opusy years ago. I employ to be a good man just now our terrible marriage deprave me. All I have left is Mr. Dimmesdale. I have made him a concoction using plants I ready on tombstones.I hope that these plants, which have giving from buried human hearts forget have an effect on him. If he dies then I go forth no longer have a patient to perform experiments on so I ordain have to slow my medical examination research until I find some other ailing individual. It bequeath be bad to find another individual with such a strong heart and a similar aura to the pastor. Also, a victim with enough assets to pay for my expenses. He knows that I have profited from his ailments and his weak frame. I do not mark off the Pastors recovery as a likely scenario.I see that he is heading to his grave so I need to take as oft energy from him before he passes on. perchance it is the demon child Pearl that is causing his imminent death. She has her own sickness which I tried to cure previously, but was unable. The deep rooted evil in the child is something even the most skilled doc cannot remove with any treat. You can see the malevolent spirit in her eyes. I wonder if the tiro of this child is the heller himself. Hester is too ashamed to name her father even years after the incident. unrivaled day I exit find out how this child came to be.Perhaps I will go out again to the wood tonight and perform a religious rite to try to find out the straight father. I must find out soon, I am getting to be an old man and I fear my time in this town is special if I cannot find another host. I shall take the pastor for a passing on the beach tomorrow eon I secretly gather ingredients for a spell. He has not been walking as well but I will still insist that he come. I must search into this matter further. If he questions me as he usually does, I will give him some medicine to calm him down.I have a rough drawing I have made that will slow him down for a fewer days giving me the opportunity to confine the situation. My intelligence is far superior to that of Arthurs and I can use that to my advantage. It is true that he is a man of purity but he is also naive. He is the spotless patient in every way. I hope that my medicines can extend his life for at least another year. He is a very rare case, I must find out more(prenominal) before he leaves my care. I will continue practising on him until he expires. ,Roger Chillingworth
