[Letter] 1764 June 7, Philadelphia (Pa.) [to] William Strahan / B. Franklin [Benjamin Franklin].
No full textFor more information about the correspondence between Franklin and Strahan, see Making of America (http://digital.lib.lehigh.edu/remain/redirect/franklin/); see also Franklin\u27s biography at (http://bioguide.congress.gov/scripts/biodisplay.pl?index=F000342). See also Franklin\u27s biography and a guide to research collections of his papers (http://bioguide.congress.gov/scripts/biodisplay.pl?index=F000342).Franklin acknowledges receiving the sender\u27s favor and promises to answer fully. Franklin asks the sender to find out if he\u27s slighted by William Becket so that he can amend for any fault he may have committed. Franklin mentions that he left receipts for subscription money for books, particularly Stewart\u27s Athens. He closes with a remark at the bottom of the sheet, "We are all well, and as happy as other Folks for the present." At the time this letter was written, Franklin was appointed the agent of Pennsylvania in London (1757-62, 1764-75); prior to assuming these duties, he served as the clerk of the Pennsylvania general assembly (1736-50), postmaster of Philadelphia (1737), delegate to the Continental Congress (1775-76), signer of the Declaration of Independence, and president of the Pennsylvania Constitutional Convention (1776). In addition, due to his scientific experiments, Franklin was also made a member of the Royal Society. Before involving himself in politics, Franklin had a career as a Philadelphia printer, founder of the _Pennsylvania Gazette_ (1728) and the popular _Poor Richard\u27s Almanac_ (1732). Later in life he was president of the trustees of the University of Pennsylvania and the Minister to France (1776-85)
Letter from John Brown Jr. to Franklin Benjamin Sanborn, April 18, 1885
Full text linkFranklin Benjamin Sanborn (1831-1917), ardent abolitionist, was a part of the “Secret Six” who funded the militant abolitionist, John Brown. Sanborn was a staunch supporter of Brown, and assisted in supporting his widow and children throughout their lives. In this letter, John Brown Jr. (1821-1895), eldest son of John Brown, makes corrections to Sanborn’s draft of his book, The Life and Letters of John Brown. His wife, Wealthy, helped him recollect details about the death and burial of his nephew. He also seeks Sanborn’s advice about a gold medal from the French government given to his mother.https://nwcommons.nwciowa.edu/abolitionistletters/1003/thumbnail.jp
