His brother, who i mentioned was an older brother, and being an older brother, would not let franklin write for the newspaper. So franklin ends up writing under a pseudonym, Silence Dogood. He puts a pen name on it and slips the essays he does under the door of his brothers print shop. And the brother and his friends. Running the print shop, have no idea where theyre coming from.
