[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I read somewhere that fathers of that class would work their connections to find spouses for their daughters if there was no one available locally. She might not have had someone nice or even her age, but she'd have a husband of her social class who could provide a place to live. She wouldn't have to work. Given the dire straits they'd be in once Mr Bennet died, I always thought it was weird he didn't seem to care about them getting married. Mrs Bennet was uncharitably written but she wasn't wrong to worry. [/quote] Indeed! Poor Mrs. Bennett was very astute to realize the dire situation they’d all be in once Mr. Bennett died. [/quote]
