Note 188 — PAPERS ON MORAL SUBJECTS AND THE ECONOMY OF LIFE. (continued 2)
Reading edition
We have no authority for ascribing this paper to Dr. Franklin, but its appearance, with his name, in a small collection of his works printed a few years ago at Paris, and cited before, page 480. As the rest of the papers in that collection are genuine, this probably is also genuine. What we give is a translation. Editor.
