Climax- Explanation
The reason I think that the Climax is from the time that Molly Farron tries to go to Squire Cass’s party and expose Godfrey till Silas resolution to keep the toddler is because these are the events that turn the story around. Before Molly came and was discovered dead in the snow, Godfrey was in constant paranoia that either Dunstey would expose his secret or Molly would come to his home. When Molly was found dead, he was free to pursue Nancy and not hold back. Another reason that this is the climax is because before Silas found Eppie, his life was centered on gold, and when that was taken he felt as if had nothing to live for. After he found Eppie, Silas’s life was reborn and he became regarded as an exceptional person in Raveloe. Even when his gold was returned to him, he didn’t hold it up as an idol as he did before he met Eppie.
