To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Indians at work here have caused the price of pisco and whisky torise to a most exorbitantly high rate. They content themselves withfeasting on the bitter acorn bread, and spend all their earnings on"strong water" and a little finery. Sometimes a party of them, whenintoxicated, will get up one of their wild dances, when the stampingand yelling are of a far more fearful character than is generally thecase at these singular exhibitions. The dance begins generally with arude song, the words be...ing of the usual harsh guttural character, butthe ideas are generally striking and peculiar. One has been explainedto me which recites the praises of the "yellow earth, " because it willprocure the Shoshonee the fleet rifle with which he can slay his Pawneefoe. It says nothing, however, about the "strong water, " which rendersthe arm of the war-chief weaker than that of a child; for, with alltheir vices, there is still that pride about the Indian character whichmakes them ashamed of those weaknesses they are unable to resist.
