Successful gentleman merchant living in London on Gracechurch Street. He is Mr. Bennet's brother-in-law and uncle to the Bennet daughters. He once invested in Fairweather soap and made a profit. He is shrewd with gray eyes, acts as a penny-pinching merchant in business but becomes a considerate uncle in personal matters. He arranged for his nieces to potentially meet the young Mr. Isaacs as a matchmaker. He negotiated a contract with Arna for selling adjustable swivel chairs in eastern Birmingham with thirty percent commission.
