Mr William Elliot Written by Emmeline (9/24/2005 7:03 a.m.) in consequence of the missive, Mr. William Elliot, penned by Cheryl

]I say, good for him! We know nothing about the happiness of his wife or the marriage, but I can certainly sympathize with his wish to have nothing to do with the supercilious, vain, proud and self-important Elliots.

]So, from what we know of Mr Elliot from the opening chapter, I'm inclined to have a favorable opinion of him.

I can understand that, but I think differently. Sir Walter and Elizabeth are not likeable, but that does not make Mr Elliot's behaviour right. I dislike all three of them.
