a poor boy, by diligent work and good
conduct grew TO have great influence, and
be much beloved and respected. BKNJA.
MIN FRANKLIN was the fifteenth of seven.

1905. With such . house full of little
folks all must be busy, and he went to a
brothers Office to be printer. Having
some trouble he went to New York in a
slOop, but could get no work, for there
were very few newspapers then. So he
trudged away across New Jersey, 8 hun.
dred miles on foot to Philadelphia, and
had bundle of clothes, one dollar, and
loaf OF bread which he ate as he walk.
ed the streets.
But he had brave heart, and soo,,
got work, and went to England awhile.
There he was rather wild, short time,
but gave it up and showed the English
boys who drank liquor, that Yankee,
who only used water, was stOuter and
abler at work than they were. Going
back 10 Philadelphia he was soon known
as writer and editor; for, although he
could SO 70 school but little, be read and
wrote much.
He was an active advocate Of our Ma
tional Independence, and was sent to
England and France by the Government

life, he was allowed to come home and
