Note backgrounds

Hello Frictional Gamers, I haven't been on this forum in years Big Grin 

In the game, the notes and journal entries have a background that shows a letter with beautiful feather pen writing, but I've always wondered what those letters say? They don't seem to match the foreground text in amount of words, so is it just a generic letter with random words, not meant to be seen by us? Also I'm wondering if that writing is an official font, or just made by a dev?

Here's an example, but keep in mind that I'm not talking about the white text!
I'm talking about the background letter.

I've searched in the game files and can't find it. Well, I did find a few files that I don't have software for Dodgy 
Also I've googeled and searched this forum and couldn't find a previous discussion about this, sorry if I'm mistaking.

This is the full-sized image. It's a TGA file in /graphics/journal

Thanks! Can you read what it says and/or do you know what font it is?
I can make out some of the words, but barely.

EDIT: I can read more when I zoom. I see the names Washington and Pennsylvania in there, so I guess it's just random text, unrelated to the story then.

EDIT2: I'm trying to decipher it. This is what I've got so far.
(I've probably got more words wrong than right):
