To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
. Mrs. Audubon, during the period of her husband's greatest activity, had traveled much and met people dis- tinguished in every walk of life. If, as some have thought, when Audubon was struggling for recognition, he was somewhat oblivious of the privations which his wife endured, in the sunshine of later years, when fame and fortune had smiled upon him, he showed by every token of affection how fully he realized his debt. Let it also be remembered that the monument by which Ameri- cans have sig...nalized their appreciation of his labors, is honored by the ashes of his beloved Lucy, which rest by his side. The original drawings of the plates of The Birds of America were sold by Mrs. Audubon on June 2, 1863, to the Historical Society of New York,^^ and a few of them are now displayed in its building in that city ; it is still hoped that a fire-proof and adequately lighted hall can be constructed so that the whole of this great series of pictures may be exhibited under more perfect con- ditions.
