* Benjamin Franklin's wealth
From shortly after the death of Benjamin Franklin, page 2 has an item which begins: "It is more to be wondered at, that Dr. Franklin, after a four-score years life of activity, did not leave to his posterity seven times as much as he did..." with more as to his successes & involvement in life (see). And read the ftpg. item headed "Astrology" for a little chuckle.
Four pages, slightly close-trimmed at the top of pg. 1 only just touching some letters, otherwise untrimmed & nice condition.
