In one of this author's novels, a character rushes off to write a letter to the protagonist after the latter insists that women do not forget men as easily as men do women in a conversation with Captain Harville.  That letter leads the protagonist to reconcile with a man who she rejected nine years earlier at the wishes of her father Walter.
