Sir William's distinction...

in consequence of the missive, The joke about Sir William Lucas being " courteous", penned by JulieW
My impression is JA confines Sir William to virtually one charecteristic; he is comically pre-occupied with having been presented at the St James's.
I am also reminded of Sir William Lucas in P&P2 by this picture of Sir Richard Arkwright. Interesting to note the conventions of a portrait of an aristocrat compared to an industrialist or inventor.
