What reading level is Notes Concerning Roger Williams book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The earlier commen- tators, probably influenced by the traditional date of birth, 1598, supposed it might mean simply over 30, but this is a strained in- terpretation. Mr. Straus, on the other hand, considers it " another way of saying he was over 25 and under 30, or nearer to 30 than 25 is to 30, that is to say, he was between 25 and 26, " which last, in common parlance, means 25 years old. This also is a strained interpretation. Surely the whole argument is to the effect that he was considera...bly past this age. To my mind, the fair interpreta- tion of the expression, taken with its context, is that he was nearer to 30 years of age than he was to 25, or that he was over 27^ years old, and hence born not later than April, 1605. The following evidence seems to prove that Roger Williams was elected a Pensioner of the Charter House School June 25, 1621. Mrs. Sadleir, the daughter of Sir Edward Coke, the great lawyer and legal writer, in a note appended to a letter of Roger Williams addressed to her, wrote : '' This Roger Williams, when he was a youth, would, in a short liand, take sermons and speeches in the Star Chamber, and present them to my dear father.
