Boswell, James

Hume had then left his house, and it appears that James Boswell became his tenant.

James Boswell, the biographer of Dr. Johnson, was distinguished in his private life by his humor and power of repartee.

Such was the hollow and feeble sophistry of such men as Mr. James Boswell, and so fondly and foolishly did they talk.

No wonder that man, that each man, and James Boswell like the others, should resemble it!

Our means of knowledge of James Boswell are derived mainly from himself; he is his own incriminator.
