Poor Richard Benjamin Franklin
2,079 words
Although in his Autobiography Benjamin Franklin
claims that at a young age he "became a thorough
Deist" (1359), Franklin saw God as much more than
a blind watchmaker. Among his frequent references
to practicality, reason, and the value of
experimental science, Franklin's metaphysical

Mc Cardie J Great Northern Railway Defendant

with the principal, the courts were prepared to
treat the agent as though he or she had the
necessary authority to do what was ...
