At long last we continue with the life of Muhlenberg.
Twelve years have passed in comic-strip time, just a few weeks in blog time. As always, click on the image for a larger version. Muhlenberg finished his studies at the University of Göttingen in 1738. Established in 1734, it had only opened for classes in 1737.
