To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Does he say this transcript from Trumbull's speech is a forgery? [Voices: " He didn't deny one of them. "] / would then like to know how it comes about that when each piece of a story is true, the whole story turns out false? I take it these people have some sense; they see plainly that Judge Douglas is playing cuttle-fish, — a small species of fish that has no mode of defending itself when pursued except by throwing out a black fluid, which makes the water so dark the enemy cannot see it, and ...thus it escapes. Is not the Judge playing the cuttle-fish? Now, I would ask very special attention to the consideration of Judge Douglas's speech at Jacksonville; and when you shall read his speech of to-day, I ask you to watch closely and see which of these pieces of testimony, every one of which he says is a forgery, he has shown to be such. Not one of them has he shown to be a for- gery. Then I ask the original question, If each of the pieces ef testimony is true, how is it possible that the whole is a falsehood ?
