Yes, I appreciate your conscientious scholarship AND the feel of what you write. It feels much more plausible than most, and more historical ly-based as well.

Don, such a compelling scene. The casual cruelty that underpinned much of Regency society is often elided in many romances. As it is today in many contemporary books. To have the Bennets encounter such a scene would have been shocking in the extreme to gently bred ladies. The horror of it, now as then, is very clear. And what a cliffhanger at the end of the scene.
