The terms of the entail are Written by kathleen (elder) (4/22/2010 2:11 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Unintelligent by nature or nurture?, penned by Adrian

not specified, and we don't know about any other male relatives who might be in line to inherit. So I don't believe we can say whether a Collins son would inherit if Mr Collins died before Mr Bennet.

        I agree with that view. Why leave a friendship of long   AnnetteJ (4/21/2010 8:18 a.m.)
        
        How do we know that Mr Collins is not   kathleen (elder) (4/21/2010 7:21 p.m.)

        I don't think so   OlgaI (4/22/2010 2:21 p.m.)
        
        So JA should have married?   kathleen (elder) (4/22/2010 11:34 a.m.)
