To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For the first, nothing is so good as at Montreal ; for the others, nothing is like London. The half breeds being more numer- ous, and endowed with uncommon health and strength, esteem themselves the lords of the land. Though they hold the middle place between civilized and savage life, one can say, that in respect to morality, they are as good as many civilized people. Their character is gentle and benevolent. Their greatest vice is prodigality ; they have also an ex- treme tendency to the use ...of strong drinks ; nevertheless, the vivacity of their faith has wrought wonders among them in this respect. A number of them have taken a pledge to abstain entirely from the use of all intoxicating liquors ; and many others, without having done as much, still hold themselves within just bounds. Generally speaking, ex- 225 cesses of this kind are rare ; nevertheless it is to be wished that the Hudson Bay Company could be made to appreciate how glorious it would be for them to cease to import intox- icating liquors into the country.
