At the beginning of his life, Silas is a devoted and happy
            church-goer and has lots of friends and they really think highly of him.  He is devout
            and hard working and has a wonderful girlfriend and everything seems to be
            great.
Once his good friend has him falsely accused of
            stealing, driven out of his home village and marries his former girlfriend, he becomes
            incredibly bitter and focuses only on saving money.
After
            he moves to Raveloe, he is regarded with suspicion by the villagers because he no longer
            attends church and does not socialize with anyone.  It is only after his money is stolen
            and he turns to the village for help that he becomes human again and starts to have
            relationships with other villagers and come out of his shell.
