Recently I stumbled upon some old computer files, and ran across this one from a high school English class. The only reason I can think of for having to write this would be from assignment following the reading of The Scarlet Letter.
It seemed an oddly appropriate tale for Thanksgiving, and there was at least one surprise find (which I won't spoil here, and you'll be forced to find out out of curiosity).
So Happy Thanksgiving, America. You've come a long way.
