To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The place he pitches on to locate, if he has not purchased land in the unsettled coun- try, is frequently one hundred, or one hundred and fifty miles, or even more, from a town, or village ; without roads of any description ; in a forest impenetrable to the rays of the Sun, and of an extent to set at defiance any attempt to explore its boundaries, and in which he and his family, for some time, are in danger of being lost, if they stray a short distance from their dwelling ; on the banks of a ri...ver, for the sake of water, and for the chance of seeing an occasional passenger, who steals his poul- try and provisions, if he has any, and can find an opportunity ; where the first thing he does is to build a log house, and clear a small por- tion of land, to sow a little wheat and maize.
TO NORTH AMERICA. 31 In this residence the inhabitant is never enlivened by the busy hum of men ; there is no society, even to quarrel with, to rouse the dormant faculties ; no social neighbour to chat with on passing events ; no newspaper to in- form him of the occurrences of that society of which he has ceased to be a member ; no tra- veller to stop and detail the transactions of the surrounding neighbourhood ; no village feasts, weddings, or christenings, where friends and relations meet in social intercourse ; no market where he can go once a week to sell the produce of his land, and procure in return the necessaries and comforts of life ; no interesting bustle with his fellow labourers in getting in the harvest, nor any harvest home to celebrate with good cheer and jollity the housing of the bounty of Providence in the productions of the earth ; no mill to grind his corn, to add to his domestic comforts ; no joint of meat for his family's Sunday dinner; no means of education for his children, whose prospects must be heartrending to the feelings of a parent ; no medical assistance if he should be ill of a fever, which are common in these situations, or if he break a bone, or cut him- self with an axe in felling a tree ; no help but what himself can afford if his wife should be in " that situation which all women wish to be who love their lords ;" no sound of bells from *3 ON EMIGRATION the parish church to summon him on Sundays to worship the Almighty, and return him thanks lor the blessings he enjoys — for, alas !
