Keep on Digging

By Ethan Rouen ’04J on October 1, 2009

Darcy continues digging his grave in a letter to Elizabeth explaining why Jane shouldn't be so heartbroken and why it would have been stupid for Bingley to marry her. It wasn't the apology letter I was expecting.
He also includes in the letter a thrashing of Wickham, who, he claims, received Darcy's father's money and holds a grudge only because he tried to marry Darcy's sister in hopes of scamming her out of her fortune. Nothing like men scorned, huh?
The silliness of this little vacation finally come to an end, with everyone going their separate ways, but not before Elizabeth seems to have ruled out another suitor, while maybe letting Darcy reenter the running.
