To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

In the interest of its constituency, the common council passed an ordinance providing for a hun- dred-weight measure, to be determined by " weighing ma- chines, " set up in various parts of the city. 2 They were operated by persons whom the common council appointed as inspectors, and the work of weighing proved so profitable that one alderman obtained permission to erect a " Hay Machine " near the Oswego market. 3 The municipal scales proved very expensive in construction ; one of them, for ex-... ample, which cost 79, proved a complete failure. 4 For a number of years no further action was taken by the common council, despite many complaints that hay, improperly cured and generally poor, was offered for sale. Twice a commit- tee of the board was appointed to devise means of settling this difficulty, but not until 1773 was a comprehensive by- law passed. 5 It placed responsibility for the quality of the hay upon the city cartmen, who were ordered, on penalty of a fine of ten shillings for every load, to make sure that it was sufficiently dried.
