What reading level is History of Poor Relief Legislation in Iowa book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the first poor law of the Territory of Iowa, that of 1840, (borrowed from Wisconsin, as has been seen), there were no overseers; but in the law bor- rowed from Ohio two years later Iowa first obtained these relief officials. 203 By the act of June 5, 1845, TOWNSHIP AND CITY RELIEF OFFICIALS 151 the township trustees were made ex officio overseers of the poor, thus for the time being eliminating the overseer. 20 * In the Code of 1851 the overseer of the poor is mentioned but twice ; 205 and t...he two functions of the office were to remove to the county of his usual resi- dence a pauper who asked to be so removed, and to have general oversight of paupers employed by the person who had the contract for the care of the poor. In this Code the term ''overseer" is synonymous with township trustee. Only the name remained: the duties had been assumed by other officials. In the Revision of 1860 this strange survival of a pre- vious practice was retained as in the Code of 1851. 206 The Code of 1873 entirely omitted the matter con- tained in Section 1392 of the Revision of 1860 ; and mention of the overseer in connection with the con- tractor was likewise eliminated.
