The letters and scrapbook clippings included in this case document the avid interest and search for Boswell-related items and information by the collector and donor of the Smith-Boswell Collection, Pittsburgh Lawyer Templeton Smith. The exhibit, James Boswell, Biographer and Diarist, is composed almost entirely of books from this collection. In addition to the Smith-Boswell Collection, the ULS also possesses the Templeton Smith Photograph Collection and a number of Smith's publications, listed below.

Case XIII contains ephemera from the Smith-Boswell Collection relating to the donors, rather than publications concerning Johnson and Boswell. They are as follows:
