To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
'I require no testimony to your being a gentleman, 'returned the kind-hearted colonel. 'Your countenance and addresssatisfy me on that head. I will receive you into the regiment withpleasure; but then I have to inform you, Mr Jackson, that there areseventeen on the list before you, who are of course entitled toprior promotion. ' The next day, at the instance of Colonel Campbell, the regimental-surgeon, Dr Stuart, appointed Jackson acting hospitalor surgeon's mate--a rank now happily abolished i...n the British army;for those who filled it, whatever might be their competency orskill, were accounted and treated no better than drudges. Althoughdischarging the duties that now devolve on the assistant-surgeon, they were not, like him, commissioned, but only warrant-officers, and therefore had no title to half-pay. Dr Stuart, who appears to have been a man superior to vulgarprejudice, and to have appreciated at once the extent of Jackson'sacquirements and the vigour of his intellect, relinquished to him, almost without control, the charge of the regimental hospital.
