What reading level is A Refutation of the Doctrine of Uninterrupted Apostolic Succession With a Corre book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

4 c. 14 v. , where St. Paul addresses his son Timothy in the following language : *' Neglect not the gift which is in= thee, which was given thee by prophecy, w^ith the laying on' of the hands of the presbytery. " We know that in 2d Tim. 1 c. 6 v. , it is said, " the gift of God" was in Timothy by the' " laying on of my" (Paul's) "hands. " But it is remarkable, that the Apostle mentions the laying on of the hands of the presbytery first, as if it was of greatest importance ; and then afterwards... mentions the part he took in conferring the same gift, as though it was of minor importance. Again, it is evident that the laying on of the hands of the presby- tery, and of the hands of St. Paul, took place at the same time, as it was intended to confer the same gift from God. But it is enough for us to know, that the presbyters or elders of the church did, in the apostolic age, and with the apos- tolic sanction, exercise the right of ordination, in virtue of their office.
And, as if Divine Inspiration foresaw, and intended to* throw into confusion and shame, the unrighteous pretension^ to succession, we find, in the sixth place, that inferiors did ordain their superiors in office, according to the views of the Doctor, by the imposition of their hands.
