Baretti, in a marginal note on Footeana, says: 'One half of it had been a string of obscenities. See post, April 24, 1779, note. See ante, i. 447. To pit is not in Johnson's Dictionary. Very likely Mr. Langton. See ante, ii. 254. Two months earlier Johnson had complained that Langton's table was rather coarse. Ante, p. 128. See post, April 13, 1781, where he again mentions this advice.
Did you think he would so soon be gone? Murphy ought to write his life, at least to give the world a Footeana. Now will any of his contemporaries bewail him? Will genius change his sex to weep? I would really have his life written with diligence. This letter is wrongly dated Oct. 3, 1777. It was written early in November. Piozzi Letters, i. 396.
