To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The price of tobacco had, for many years, stood at sixteen shillings and eight pence per hundred, but in consequence of the short crop of 1755, it suddenly rose to two or three times its former value, and the planters procured the passage of a law, 624 Sketch of Patrick Henry. [October, through the colonial assembly, allowing them to commute all debts due in tobacco, for the price in money which it had hitherto borne.
This act was limited to the operations of that year only ; but another short ...crop occurring in 1758, the same law was re-enacted. The clergy were not long in discovering how greatly they were losers by the operations of this law, and it was attacked from several quarters through the press with great vigor. Rejoinders were of course made, and the excitement became so great that the printers in Virginia refused to lend the disputants the aids of the press. At length the circumstance came to the knowledge of the king, who immediately took sides with the clergy, and because the act of the colonial legislature had not received his assent, declared it null and void.
