To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Could we lift the curtain that conceals from our view the secrets of the charnel-house, every eye would be dimmed by the hideous sight, every heart would swell with an indig- nant and fierce resolve, to battle to the death, any agency that could by any possibility produce such un- told horrors. Hear the cry of despair from the wretched sufiferers, coming up from the depths, and listen to the wailing of women and children — and be still, if you can. One woman writes me, " It would take weeks to ...tell you all I have suffered from a drunken husband." Another writes : ^ I have heard you picture tales of misery, but not one where the child of a drunkard has suffered what I have." Another : ^^ Ah ! how my heart aches, when I think of all we have passed through. I often look at my poor father, and say to my dear mother: ^Oh! if Mr. Gough could only look here — would not this give him a subject?' Oh! my poor, poor father — my broken-hearted mother! My hand trembles, and tears come unbidden to my eyes, when I think of what we have to endure.
