To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He carried his business honesty into the ward- meeting, into everything he undertook for the betterment of the city and of his fellow- citizens. If Mr. Keith did not think the chosen officials of the people were managing public affairs as they should be managed, he did not sit in his bank or in his library and rail at dishonesty and corruption in politics; he got into the caucus and the primary and forced the dishonest and the corrupt and the in- 15 IN MEMORIAM competent to retreat. He believed... that a good citizen meant an active citizen, and he acted on this beHef. In contributing his full share toward building up the commercial interests of his adopted city through nearly half a century of activity, Mr. Keith did not slight other interests. He took a directing hand in the business of the board of education; he was a leader in college affairs; religious and philanthropic institutions and movements received his hearty support; the broader field of civic improvement and progress found him an ever-ready worker; and he had time in addition to play his part in the social life of the city.
