Benjamin Franklin was born in Milk Street, Boston, on January
6, 1706. His father, Josiah Franklin, was a tallow chandler who
married twice, and of his seventeen children Benjamin was the
youngest son. His schooling ended at ten, and at twelve he was
bound apprentice to his brother James, a printer, who published
the "New England Courant." To this journal he became a
contributor, and later was for a time its nominal editor. But
the brothers quarreled, and Benjamin ran away, going first to
New York, and thence to Philadelphia, where he arrived in
October, 1723. He soon obtained work as a printer, but after a
few months he was induced by Governor Keith to go to London,
where, finding Keith's promises empty, he again worked as a
compositor till he was brought back to Philadelphia by a mer-
chant named Denman who gave him a position in his business.
On Denman's death he returned to his former trade, and shortly
set up a printing house of his own from which he published
"The Pennsylvania Gazette" to which he contributed many
essays, and which he made a medium for agitating a variety of
local reforms. In 1732 he began to issue his famous "Poor
Richard's Almanac" for the enrichment of which he borrowed
or composed those pithy utterances of worldly wisdom which
are the basis of a large part of his popular reputation. In 1758,
the year in which he ceased writing for the Almanac, he printed
in it "Father Abraham's Sermon, now regarded as the most
