What reading level is An Account of the Ancient Town of Frodsham in Cheshire book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Leland, the royal antiquary, in his visit to Cheshire, records that at another forest town of the county, of which Frodsham was one, a woman lived to attain the age of 140 years. She and Thomas Hough might have claimed kindred with the old lady at Mentz, who lived to see the sixth generation of her descendants, and who, being asked why she had lived so long, replied that she did so in order that " she might tell her daughter to tell her daughter that her daughter's daughter was crying ;" or, as... the story is told in Latin (l) Mater ait (2) natse die (3) natse (4) natam Ut moneat (5) natae plangere (6) filiolam.
On this subject, also, Dr. Ormerod, the historian of Cheshire, mentions a circumstance which gives countenance to what Leland and the Frodsham register tell us of the longevity of the neighbourhood. One of the Vernons, a baron of Kinderton, he says, attained so great an age that he had the sobriquet of "old Ralph Vernon;" and he is said to have lived to the age of 150 years, which is rather confirmed than contradicted by his inqui- sition post-mortem, by which it was found that he had outlived his grandson's grandson, and that his estate had passed to an equally remote collateral relation.
