What reading level is Captain Jacobus book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As I stood gazing in absence of mind at the profile of a helmed warrior whose picture was next to the great stone fireplace, I suddenly beheld his eyeball move, a shining speck in the gloom. My skin crept upon me, and I glanced fearfully round at the shadows that lurked in the comers; then I looked again. The dead Elizabethan was gazing in front of him under painted lids. My brain was tricking me again, I supposed ; and small wonder, for my battered 20 r Captain Jacobus head ached sorely whenev...er I had time to thmk about it. I drew a step nearer, staring at the picture ; when my heart gave a bursting leap, for a voice issued from the wall.
**I fear I must put you to the trouble of releasing me, Mr. Langford," it said, in muffled tones. ** Touch the spring, and undo the bolts, if you please.** I had no notion there was a secret chamber, or priest's hole, in that place; and marvelling gready, sought for the spring. The voice con- tinued to direct me ; and at length a massy steel lever shot back, the whole picture opened out- wards like a door, and who should step over the wainscot but Manning, with his high look and superior air, and neady ded love-lock, just as I had last beheld him under that roof.
