To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The Constitution being the work of many hands and containing so many alterations and amendments would naturally have been rough and ill- joined, containing a variety of styles. It is worthy of note that the convention considerately referred it to a committee of one — Governeur Morris — an accomplished scholar, to make changes " of form not of substance." Under his hand it was polished and put in shape, and hence the uniform flow and regularity oT its language.
But the work was not yet done. The
... Constitution was yet to be ratified by the Conventions of the several States.
When the North Carolina Convention met at Hillsboro July 21, 1788, a formidable opposition was arrayed against its adoption, headed by Willie Jones, David Caldwell, Judge Spencer and others. The friends of adoption were led by James Iredell, a remarkably able man, and Col.
Davie aided by Spaight, McLaine, Steele and others.
The adoption of the Constitution was at that time de- feated. After the adoption subsequently of the Federal Constitution by North Carolina, President Washington tendered the appointment of United States District Judge to Davie, who declined it.
