Title: Benjamin Franklin to Deborah Franklin, 1758

Description: Wrote to Mr. David Hall that he received his bills. Hopes his anger is over. Thinks it would improve cousin Josey if he was to come to England and work in some of the best marble shops for a year or two. Is sorry to hear of any disturbance in the Academy the rather as by his introducing that imprudent man William Smith, he thinks he is in some degree the cause of those misfortunes
