Event
Jane's Illness at Netherfield
Hoping to throw Jane in Mr. Bingley's way, Mrs. Bennet sends her to Netherfield on horseback in threatening weather; Jane is caught in the rain, takes cold, and must stay to be nursed. Elizabeth walks three miles across muddy fields to be with her, arriving with dirty petticoats that scandalise the Bingley sisters.
