Planning the ball at the Crown Inn

Frank Churchill is eager to have a ball and proposes holding it at the Crown Inn rather than at Randalls, as it has a larger room. Emma and the Westons agree, and they begin making plans. The ball becomes a major topic of conversation and anticipation in Highbury. Frank is particularly keen on securing Emma as his partner for the first two dances.
