Sidney trod the way of the transgressor, and found that its thorns pierced to bone and marrow. Everything had come to an end nothing was left to her! In the untried recklessness of twenty untempered years she wished she could die before John Lincoln came to Plainfield. The eyes of youth could not see how she could possibly live afterward.
One December afternoon in 1815, he was walking from Cummington to Plainfield aged twenty-one, and looking for a place in which to settle as a lawyer. Across the vivid sunset flew a black duck, as solitary and homeless as himself. The bird seemed an image of his own soul, "lone wandering but not lost." Before he slept that night he had composed the poem "To a Waterfowl."
One such request went from Sidney under the pen-name of "Ellen Douglas."

How could a man do justice in a trial before him, when his mind is racked with worry over his own affairs? It is unfair to all plaintiff, defendant, and juryman alike. With the removal to Plainfield came the commencement of a period of bitter trial and almost unremitting struggle for existence.
And on my way back to the Bar N I mean to stop off at Plainfield again for another week, and then I shall tell you something more something it would be a little too bold to say now, perhaps, although I could say it just as well and truly. All this if I may. May I, Sidney?" He bent forward and looked earnestly into her face. Sidney felt a new, curious, inexplicable thrill at her heart. "Oh, yes.
