Excerpt from The Life of Samuel Johnson, LL. D, Vol. 3 of 4: Comprehending an Account of His Studies and Numerous Works, in Chronological Order; A Series of His Epistolary Correspondence and Conversations With Many Eminent Persons

At Leicester we read in the news - paper that Dr. James2 was dead. I thought that the death of an Old school-fellow, and one with whom he had lived a good deal in London, would have affected my fellow-traveller much: but he only said, Ah! Poor Jamy.' Afterwards, however, when we were in the chaise, he said, with more tenderness, Since I Set out on this jaunt, I have lost an old friend and a young one -dr. James, and poor Harry3.' (meaning Mr. Thrale's son.)
