To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A man who had approached him for the purpose of corrupting him, would have been as much dis- posed to fall down before him in an act of homage as to have attempted to carry out his purpose. After a lifetime devoted to the service of his country, it is surely no mean praise of a public man, that declarations like these can be uttered, with the certainty that they will be credited, not less by the suitors against whom he decided, than by the profession who practiced before him, and the community ...whose laws he enforced. There was another feature in his character, which is, though it should not be, worthy of passing notice. I refer to his delicate sense of pecuniary obligation. He remained at the bar for too short a period, if he had been actively employed, to accumulate property. Of the smallness of his salary, during his entire judicial term, the reader is prob- ably aware.* His hospitality through life was so generous * His highest salary was $2,000 per annum, with per diem expenses in addi- tion to this sum, making his' salary equivalent to about $2,500 per annum.
