Linnet, Miss Rebecca
Title
Linnet, Miss Rebecca
Description
Mrs. Linnet's younger daughter, a headstrong, unpopular woman. Like her sister, she is in love with Mr. Tryan, for whose sake she gives up finery. "Rebecca was always spoken of sarcastically, and it was a customary kind of banter with young ladies to recommend her as a wife to any gentleman they happened to be flirting with—her fat, her finery, and her thick ankles sufficing to give piquancy to the joke, notwithstanding the absence of novelty."
