        <ptr target="ukred-21713">"He [Johnson] was much diverted with an article which I shewed him in the ""Critical Review"" of this year, giving an account of a curious publication, entitled, ""A Spiritual Diary and Soliloquies"", by John Rutty, M.D. Dr. Rutty was one of the people called Quakers, a physician of some eminence in Dublin, and authour of several works. This Diary, which was kept from 1753 to 1775, the year in which he died, and was now published in two volumes octavo, exhibited, in the simplicity of his heart, a minute and honest register of the state of his mind; which, though frequently laughable enough, was not more so than the history of many men would be, if recorded with equal fairness."
