Haytham Kenway and Charles Lee noticed his distress and approached him, who Franklin informed them of what happened, adding that if they could find the missing pages in their spare time, he would reward them. Haytham succeeded in recovering the missing pages for the 1733 [Vol.1], earning Franklin's gratitude and £500[1].
