To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I presided as I do now, but I was not one of the starters of the Society; I was an after-thought. (Laughter.) Nevertheless, I ran the dinner, as I have run, more or less, with the aid of the Stewards and the older and wiser heads of the Society, every dinner since, except this. But at this dinner I have been completely floored. Perhaps it is as well that I have had the grip, for if I had my full flow of words you might hate me for the rest of your lives; but for once you will be spared, and you... will be spared a great deal.
(Laughter.) The Society once so weak now numbers not one, but twenty-six chapters in twenty-six different States, stretching from Maine, from which our handsome and venerable looking friend, Mr. Glidden, comes, to far-off California. Then we had some fifty members at the outside. To-night we have between three and four thousand carefully selected men of undoubted Colonial descent. (Applause.) You know the old story, that when the animals were questioning which one had the pre-eminence on account of its numbers at birth, they went around com- paring notes until they reached the lioness, and asked her ; she said, "One, but that one is a lion" !
