To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Then he took a circuit on the east side of the lake, extending back to the Green Moun- tains. After two years of hard service, in this way, he was ordained a Deacon, in 1803, and was sent to a circuit in New Hampshire. There he labored in- tensely until his health gave way. He arose from the borders of the grave, after being ill eight months, with a constitution much shattered, but a soul burning with more intense zeal foi- the Grospel, than before. His labors were highly esteemed; and, in 1805..., he was ordained an Elder, by Bishop Asbury. Two years afterward he became a presiding elder ; and he performed the duties of that office with great ability and dignity. Plain in speech and earnest in man- ner, his preaching always seemed accompanied with the demonstrations of the spirit, and revivals every where attended his ministrations. Yet in all his labors he won no earthly gain. During ten years, his average cash receipts were only forty-five doUars a year ! Yet he says the sisters were kind to him, for they put patches upon the knees of his pantaloons, and often turned an old coat for him.
