Jonathan Thorn and the Tonquin (Part 1)
Jonathan Thorn was hired by John Jacob Astor to pilot his ship from the east coast to scout out territory for a new fur trading post. At the same time, Astor sent a group led by Wilson Price Hunt on an overland route. Thorn highly respected Astor, but held almost everyone else in contempt. He was highly arrogant, heavy-handed, and cruel. Several times, his crew threatened him with mutiny.

Benjamin Franklin, 1706-1790
To introduce my article on the childhood of this famous gentleman, I want to quote from the web site"Benjamin Franklin, an Enlightened American" (see html at the end of this article): "What makes a leader? Intelligence, passion, strength, devotion, charisma, tenacity, perseverance, generosity, forgiveness. Franklin possessed all of these qualities and that is why he is considered to be one of the greatest American minds and a proud pillar of our national heritage. However, our affinity for Franklin extends deeper. He seems to embody and personify the American dream. Born the son of a candlemaker, few people would have surmised that Franklin would master so many disciplines. His story proves that with determination and dedication, success is within anyone's grasp. A leading American statesman, inventor, philanthropist, publisher, revolutionary, and thinker, Benjamin Franklin was truly the Enlightened American."
