To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He read law in Providence, began to practice here in 1771, and in 1773 married Lucy Ellery. He was a lawyer of marked ability, but rather too fond of politics for the good of his family. He was at the same time attorney-general of the State and United States district-at- torney. He was a loyal son of Princeton and came near sending his boy, William Ellery, there. As Princeton theol- ogy has always been of a very different stamp from that of Harvard, we naturally speculate as to what might have ...hap- pened if Channing had gone to Princeton instead of to Har- vard. Would he have changed the spiritual atmosphere of Princeton or would it have changed him? 132 The elder Channing was deeply religious, and a strong supporter of the Congregational Church. He took an active part in the restoration of Dr. Hopkins's meeting-house. His intercourse with Dr. Stiles, his former minister, had broad- ened his mind. This liberality of opinion he passed on to his children. In a time and society much given to profanity he was entirely free from it.
