BENJAMIN FRANKLIN KI ATMAKATHA [Paperback] BENJAMIN FRANKLIN

My pamphlet accidentally fell into the hands of a surgeon named Lyons. He was also a writer and had written a book titled The Infallibility of Human Judgment. This gave us the opportunity to get acquainted. He developed a strong interest in me. He would visit me to discuss topics of interest. He introduced me to Dr. Mandeville, author of Fable of the Seeds. Lyons also introduced me to Dr. Pemberton, who promised to arrange a meeting with Sir Isaac Newton. I had a strong desire to meet him, but it never happened.

I had been living with Godfrey constantly until then. He shared a portion of my house with his wife and children and used the shop for his glazier business. He was absorbed in mathematics, and could only do a little work. Mrs. Godfrey brought up the idea of my marriage to a woman in her family. She often found opportunities to introduce us. Gradually, I began to pursue a romantic relationship. Since the girl was also suitable, I was encouraged by inviting her to dinner and leaving us alone. Mrs. Godfrey mediated between us.
