What reading level is Abraham Witmers Bridge book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

A notice publish- ed in the Lancaster Journal on Wed- nesday, November 12, 1800, reads: Conestogoe Bridge.
It is with great pleasure Abraham Witmer informs the pub- lic that his new bridge will be completed to-morrow, on which day, at one o'clock, the inscription stone will be fixed in the center of the north wall of said bridge. The friends of Abraham Witmer and all other citizens desirous to see the same are respectfully in- formed thereof.
The length of the bridge is 540 feet, and the width
...of the roadway is 19 feet in the clear. In the middle of it, on the north wall, is a tablet which contains the following: (165) Erected by Abraham Witmer M. D. C. C. XC. IX-M. D. C. C. C.
A Law of an Enlightened Commonwealth Passed April 4, 1798, Thomas Mifflin, Governor, Sanctioned this Monument of the Public Spirit of an Individual.
61 M. To P.
On the south side of the bridge, carved in the stone abutment, is the following: This Bridge Was Built by Abr. Witmer and His Wife in the Year 1800.
How much it cost to build, I can- not say with accuracy, as it was a private undertaking, and there are no records existing that I know of which contain that data.
