Elizabeth "liking the man for himself" Written by Jean B (10/6/2008 11:39 a.m.) in consequence of the missive, I'm not sure..., penned by Shirley Rae

I only really absorbed that statement for the first time in this reading.

JA seems to point at this, maybe to set her up as disappointed in a way like Anne. One continues onto one path and the other onto another.

I think I will watch this relationship of how each deals with her disappointment and what JA actually tells us of each and what I or we might have put onto it.
