12) Gowan’s Lotion
13) M and A
14) Meryton
15) The Laconia
16) Steward
Thanks, Amanda! I knew very few of
those — though I’m pretty sure #12 is actually “Gowland’s Lotion” rather than “Gowan’s Lotion.” And to be ridiculously pedantic, though it’s called “Gowland’s Lotion” in the Root/Hinds movie, in the book it’s only referred to as “Gowland”! 🙂
(I say the above not because I’m an Austen expert, but because I’ve watched the Root/Hinds movie so many times that I have that passage memorized! I looked it up in my book to check that it wasn’t “Gowan’s” in the book, and discovered the rest.) 🙂

Ooops! (And I’m not really a bad speller–ha!). I always get into such a hurry on these blogs and forget to proofread. That’s why I have critique partners for my books, LOL
