Episode description
Poor at twenty, rich at forty, internationally famous at fifty. Benjamin Franklin once walked the streets of Philadelphia alone, poor, and with no education. Yet he rose to be a leader because he learned the secret of careful reading. (Volume 1, Harvard Classics)
Franklin made U. S. plenipotentiary in France, Oct. 26, 1778.
