Yes. The Bennett estate is entailed to whoever Mr. Bennett's male heir is. Since the Bennets have no sons, the estate reverts to the closest male relative, i.e. Mr Colllins.

This situation is not changed with the marriages of any of his daughters. However, the situation becomes less pressing since, upon Mr. Bennett's death, his widow can depend on her well-married daughters for her care.
