Best Answer

Hawthorne didn't start his novel this way. In his preface to the novel this is the beginning to a paragraph. He uses this to phrase as he begins to explain to the reader how he found the material that inspired The Scarlett Letter, or rather the material from whence the story came regardless of who had written it, Hawthorne just by chance being the person to find it. As for any other authors using this phrase, I don't know.
