The setting is rural and isolated. The sheriff Henry Peters, the young county attorney George Henderson, and the neighbor Lewis Hale enter the gloomy, disordered kitchen of John Wright's farmhouse. There is a feeling of sadness and loneliness in this setting. The reader gets the sense that there is emotional distress and even abuse in this setting.
