Samuel Johnson wrote the letter to Lord Chesterfield to express his dissatisfaction with Chesterfield's belated patronage and support of his work. Johnson felt that Chesterfield had ignored him in the past and was now trying to benefit from his success. Johnson's letter serves as a rejection of Chesterfield's patronage and a declaration of his independence as a writer.
