What reading level is An Impartial Examination of the Case of Captain Isaac Phillips Late of the Navy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
What I ought to have had, was my commission, which I had not, and without it, the other was no evidence at all.
The Secretary is quite correct in his logic, when he says, the documents / had^ or ought to have had^ would have been n)ore than enough. But he seemed to have forgotten, or not to know, that what I ought to havehad was my com- mission, and that, without it, all the other documents on board, were good for notliing, in establishing the charac- ter of my ship. In reply to the declaration..., tliat my let- ter of appointment was all that any foreign oliicer had a right to demand, I hazard little in saying, that it is neith- er correct in law, nor in practice. No foreign officer is bound to respect any evidence of authority, but that which emanates from the power, that by the law of the country, can legally give it. Is that the Secretary of the Navy, or the President and Senate'of the United States? Is it to be proved by an appointment of the Secretary of some subordinate department of the Government, or by a Com- mission, signed by the President, countersigned by the Secretary, and un(^er the seal of the Nation?
