To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
20 I am here no more to pronounce an oration than I am to preach a sermon. I consented, as one of the speakers, to contribute something in the way of reminiscences. Twenty years ago, I was more formal in a memorial service at Newport, when there was a reunion, not of natives merely, but of past and present residents. And, nineteen years ago, at Sherburne, Mass. , I addressed, in quite another style, the descendants of Henry Leland, some of whose posterity, at an early period, settled in Croydon.... But this is neither Newport nor Sherburne ; it is my birthplace, the home of ray progenitors, full to overflow of the tenderest associations, and the affections here burn with an intensity that forbids all intellectual elaboration. To say much of persons might be deemed invidious ; but of a very few I may speak particularly without incurring the imputation of partiality. Foremost among those remembered, 1 mention Jacob Haven, uniformly called " Priest, " as were all Congrega- tional ministers in this region, while Baptist and Freewill Baptist ministers were as uniformly known by the title of " Elder.
