What reading level is Address to the Non Slaveholders of the South On the Social And Political Evils book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If such free negro or mu- latto returns to the State, he is to be imprisoned for five years.
The jailor of Savannah some time since reported ten stewards as being in his custody. These were free citizens of other States, deprived of their liberty solely on account of the complexion their Maker had given them, and in direct violation of the express language of the Federal Constitution. If any free negro or mulatto enters the State of Mississippi, for any cause however urgent, any white citizen m...ay cause him to be punished by the Sheriff with thirty-nine lashes, and if he does not immediately thereafter leave the State, he is sold as a slave.
In Maryland, a free negro or mulatto, coming into the State, is fined $20, and if he returns he is fined $500, and on default of payment, is sold as a slave. Truly indeed have the slaveholders rendered the Constitution a blurred, obliterated, and tattered parchment. But whenever this same Constitution can, by the 30 grossest perversion, be made instrumental in upholding and per- petuating human bondage, then it acquires, for the time, a mar- vellous sanctity in their eyes, and they are seized with a holy indignation at the very suspicion of its profanation.
