Title

Quote from Samuel Johnson

Description

One side begins to tell the recipient about something received from Philadelphia. The other quotes Doctor Johnson "It was a most mortifying reflection for any man to consider what he had done, compared with what he might have done." Follows this with a reflection on a historical figure who expected people to keep appointments to the minute.
