To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I knew two of these jurors, Milton Logan and John T. Brady, both of whom were then living, and to them I addressed letters of inquiry. I received no answer from Mr. Logan, and learned that his memory had wholly failed him ; ; he died in Feb. 1910 at his home in Boone, Iowa, at the advanced age of 90 years. I became acquainted with Mr. John T. Brady in 1864, when he was visiting his friends in this county on a furlough from his regiment in the Union Army. He was then a citizen of Kansas; I have ...met him frequently since that date, and last summer had the pleasure of visiting him and his family at their home in Pomona, California. He is a retired capitalist, in the enjoyment of excellent physical health, and his mental powers un- impaired. He is a man of much more than ordinary intelligence, and he has written me at length, of his recol- lections of the Armstrong trial, and I have every con- fidence in the reliability of his information. I have care- fully examined the record of the trial, have written to Judge Lyman Lacey, of Havana, 111.
