What passes between darcy and wickham?

Darcy and Wickham had history. They had been raised together, and Darcy learned to distrust Wickham because of his bad habits, such as gambling. Wickham was to inherit a position on Darcy's estate, but asked to take money instead, which he was given. After he gambled this away, he came back for more, which was refused. He then tried to elope with Darcy's sister, and almost succeeded. In the book, they clearly do not want to be near each other. Wickham tells lies to Elizabeth and others about their connection, and Elizabeth takes sides without close examination of the truth. Later, when Darcy has reason to defend his honor on the subject, he sets the record straight, convincing Elizabeth of the truth. When Wickham elopes with Elizabeth's sister, Lydia, Darcy hunts them down and bribes Wickham to marry her for the sake of the honor of the family, to ease Elizabeth's pain on the subject. This is expensive, as it means purchasing an army commission, paying off Wickham's debts, and providing some amount of cash.
