question:

On the one hand, Mr. Franklin tells us how "loathsome" are the German migrants moving to Pennsylvania. Yet, in our next reading, we see how "triffling" is Mr.Moraley, an Englishindenturer" who initially settled with his master in Burlington, New Jersey, then later movingto Philadelphia.Moraleythinks not having a "Pass" to move around the colonies is "grievous" harmful since it limits his ability to run away from his indentured master and move out on his own, thereby breaking the law by breaking his contract of indentured servitude. It appears that Franklin would be more apt to excuseMoraley's behavior than the same by a German indenture running from place to place, simply becauseMoraleyspoke the language and was from England. How do you judge the bias of Mr. Franklin based on the case of Mr. Moraley, in contrast with his bias towards a Germanindenturerguiltyof the same kind of behavior?
