why did Jane have to ride a horse?
Hi,
I have a question (may be I posted it at a wrong place earlier). In chapter 7, Jane goes to Bingley's house on horseback, because the the horses were engaged in the farm, and she couldn't avail the carriage.
Later, Elizabeth walks there to meet her "as she was no horsewoman, walking was her only alternative." This means, at this point, there was at least one horse for her to avail. Therefore, when Jane had gone, there were at least two of them. Why could she not avail the carriage?
Am I missing something?
Thanks,
Suman.

Elizabeth Bennett
I personally believe that Elizabeth Bennett has serious emotonal problems. I hope that she learns from her mistakes and turns into a better person. She HORRIFIES me. Pride and Prejudice should have left her out. The book would have been MUCH better.

appearance versus reality
To be right judged,you have to be sociable and easy-going. one cannot believe that this is a good point of view.But people have to know each other
well before judging them.
