No we're not Written by Laraine (4/10/2008 3:50 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Plausible reason, penned by Elbè

We're never told. It might have been from complications having another child who didn't survive, or an illness (either of short or long duration), or an accident, or something else.

It's of course possible that losing his wife has made Mr. Woodhouse as fidgety as he is about illness, but we don't know if that's true.
