Day 17
April 13 morning
I ate breakfast with Franklin this morning. I hadn’t had a chance to talk with him since the pilgrimage began and I found this rather satisfying. He is quite a gentleman. He told me of his lavish parties and fine foods, and for a moment I wished I were at one of his parties with wine and duck instead of at this cruddy local tavern eating slop. The rest of the pilgrims announced time to departure, and as I left on my horse, my thoughts wandered to the Franklin’s riches and I began to feel giddy again. A man with such good fortune and wealth should have a wife that appreciates and appropriately displays her husband’s stature.
