Dick : Christian philosopher

'Reader, how is our family circle this evening? I will tell you. We are seated around a circular table. On my right is WLC copying some matter for me out of Dr Dick's works. Next to him is Tho_s drawing on a slate one of the mountains on the highlands of Scotland... Next is rank sits Mary, putting some reparation to a white cotton stocking, and then follows Emma [...] The scenery of the table consists of Wakefield's Family tour - Dr Dick's Christian philosopher, a vol or two of the Children's Friend - slate - inkstand - cotton-box lined with pink, knife and scissors.'
