From George Grote's Journal, 3 December 1822:
'Rose a little before 7. Read to the conclusion of Pausanias, being about 40 pages [...] Read
some very interesting matter in the first volume of Goguet respecting the early arts, agriculture,
baking, brewing [...] and clothes. This is far the best part of Goguet which I have yet seen.'

From George Grote's Journal, 5 December 1822:
'Rose a little before 8. Read Goguet's Dissertation on Sanchoniathon; I do not think he has
given the right reasonings about the genuineness or spuriousness of this author. Read also his
Dissertation on the Book of Job, which I think poor. In the evening read 60 pages of Wolf's
Proleg. in Homer, which I think very good.'
