To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The correctness of this assertion would, I venture to say, be corroborated by the storm and outcry that is invariably raised and all the things that are said about, as well as the epithets that are applied to, us in certain newspapers whenever any one of my community writes or does anything in support of the Government or against the propaganda of agitation, sedition, and disloyalty. I have no hesitation in saying that all the Chiefs gratefully realize that under the aegis of Tour Excellency's ...rule, a very great deal has already been done to help them and their Durbars, and to smooth over difficulties and matters of a nature which caused them inconvenience and anxiety. But in spite of that perhaps my community are too sensitive and perhaps we are wrong ; yet, whatever it may be, the fact remains that the feeling is that, for diverse reasons of several years' standing which it would be as unnecessary as it is out of place to touch upon here, our dignity and importance has gradually diminished to some extent and that we do not now occupy the same position as we did some 40 to 50 years ago, and we consequently feel that this fact, to a very large extent, detracts from our usefulness and lessens our influence and power of doing good and of our contributing our modest quota of help to the British Government in maintaining law and order and checking lawlessness and violence.
