To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I have seen the Arkansas bot- tom for miles above and miles below Fort Dodge covered with Indians' tepees and ponies — thousands of the former and many thousands of the latter — the Indians all draw- ing rations, and the whole country full of game, black with buffalo and large bands of antelope, with deer on the islands and in the brush, and not a few elk in the breaks and rough country. I think it was in 1867 our government got a very liberal streak, and sent the Indians thousands of sacks of ...flour, pantaloons in abundance, and a big lot of stiff-rim hats, bound around the edge with tin or German silver, to hold the rim in shape. They also sent them a few light-running ambulances. The savages, to show their appreciation of these magnanimous gifts from the "Great Father, " threw the flour on the prairie in order to get the sacks for breech-clouts. They cut out the seats of the —92— i pantaloons, as they said an Indian's posterior was too I warm anyhow; they cut the crown off the hats and used I them as playthings, shying them in the air like a white I boy does a flat stone, to see them sail away.
