[Footnote 55:  Morellet, Memoires, Tom.  I. p. 288.  Nothing is more curious with regard to Franklin than these Memoires, including especially the engraving from an original design by him.  In some copies this engraving is wanting.  It is, probably, the gayeties here recorded, and, perhaps, the “infatuation” of the court-ladies, that suggested the scandalous charges which Dr. Julius has strangely preserved in his Nordamerikas Sittliche, Zustaende, Vol.  I. p. 98.]
