What reading level is My Log book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The coffin was kept alongside the port rail on deck, and in spite of the heat, no stench came from it ; the native crew, however, would carefully avoid it, espe- cially at night. Before we were in Hongkong we had on deck several of these reminders that life is brief.
75 MY LOG The part of the hold occupied by the Chinese passen- gers was fitted up with shelves just like an opium-joint; on these they stowed themselves away and came out only to light up. Some, I believe, had not been on deck sinc...e we left Sydney; they apparently kept themselves under the influence of opium to escape seasickness. Some, the gamblers, however, were out whenever the weather was favorable; then they were at fan-tan all the while, Sunday not excepted. No money appeared, chips only were used on deck, but one day a raid below was made and twenty-five pounds sterling and a lot of gambling paraphernalia confiscated.
Two days later we steamed into Port Darwin, two thousand five hundred and seventeen miles from Sydney, and as we had two hundred tons of coal and a lot of machinery to discharge we were here three full days, which was certainly quite enough, for there was there only a little settlement gathered about the headquarters of the British Australian Telegraph Company.
