Editing Deborah Read

According to ''Mario's Time Machine'', Deborah Read lived in Philadelphia in 1752, where she managed Benjamin Franklin's general store. When Mario first visits the store, he asks Deborah if this is Benjamin's store, and she replies in the affirmative. She is surprised that Mario does not know this, as she says that everyone in Philadelphia knows about Benjamin Franklin, especially his [[Almanac]] and his {{wp|bifocals}}. Mario then recognizes her as "Mrs. Franklin", and she begins to talk about how she and Benjamin first met when he first came to Philadelphia, and how the two later met when he started his printing business. Mario asks her if he is both a printer and a merchant, and she says that he has currently retired from his printing business to focus on scientific advancements, though he is still involved in publishing his [[Newspaper]] and Almanac. Mario wonders out loud how Benjamin could possibly have the time to deal with all of that, and Deborah then quotes her husband: "Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise!" She mentions that her husband's Almanac contains many of quotes, including "A penny saved is a penny earned," and "Keep thy shop and thy shop will keep thee," before also mentioning that her shop is earning a pretty penny. She also mentions that she sells a variety of goods, and she gives Mario a [[Stamp]] for free while asking him to pay her back later. Mario later pays for it with a [[Penny]], and she thanks him for his patronage, saying that he must come from a good family like Benjamin. She says that Benjamin's family had seventeen children and goes on to describe her own family, mentioning Sally and William (although the identity of William's mother is unknown, and she does not mention Francis, who had died in 1736 at only four-years-old). The conversation ends with Mario asking Deborah why Benjamin and William are outside flying a kite during a thunderstorm, and she says that Benjamin is trying to prove that lightning is electricity, but he has misplaced the key he needs for his experiment.
