- Titan_Leeds abstract "Titan Leeds (1699–1738) was an 18th-century American almanac publisher.He is best known for his treatment by Benjamin Franklin's rival publication Poor Richard's Almanack. In an attempt to damage Leeds, Franklin used his own almanac to predict Leeds' death (Oct. 17, 1733, 3:29 P.M., at the very instant of the conjunction of the Sun and Mercury), and when the date of Leeds' supposed passing had come and gone, Franklin published Leeds' obituary anyway. When challenged by the very much alive Leeds, Franklin insisted that Leeds had in fact died, but that he was being impersonated. When Leeds actually died in 1738 Benjamin Franklin publicly commended the impostors for ending their charade.".
