What reading level is Memoir of Jean Baptiste Faribault book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
CAMPBELL was an independent trader, and had two clerks in his employ, both of whom were subsequently killed by an In- dian, whose daughter was the wife of one of them. This wo- man was not of good character, and having been reprimanded for her bad conduct by her husband, a Canadian Frenchman, named DECOTEAUX, her father incontinently disposed of his son-in-law by shooting him, and he also shot the other clerk, who was the only witness of the murder, with a hope of escap- ing detection and punis...hment. Mr. CAMPBELL boldly accused the savage of being the perpetrator of the double crime, where- upon the Indian determined to serve him as he had served the clerks. He summoned to his aid some of his kindred, and re- paired to CAMPBELL'S house, where Mr. FARIBAULT happened to be at the time. CAMPBELL barred his doors, and, with the as- sistance of his friend and hired men, prepared to defend him- self. The Indian mounted upon the roof of the cabin, and was peering down the chimney, when he received a ball through the jaw from a rifle in the hands of CAMPBELL, which felled him to the ground ; another of the savages was shot through the nose, when the besiegers decamped, more than satisfied with their experience.
