To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I doubt whether I have at any time, while in this State, advanced a sentiment on our system of education in which these documents do not anticipate me. Sure I am, that I have not advanced anything in which I am not fully sustained by the spirit of these documents. There has always been abroad in this State the idea of a great and true University; of schools preparatory to it, once known as "Branches, " and now virtually revived again in the system of Union Schools ; and of Primary District Scho...ols. Indeed, from the discussion through which you have permitted me to conduct you, it is perfectly evident that no proper system of education can be devised which does not embrace these gradations, and that their proportional and full devel opment is the perfection of such a system. When I came to Michi gan, judging from your educational documents, I found the stream of public opinion moving in this direction. I thought it the right direc tion. I threw myself into the stream, desirous only of moving with it, and of contributing, according to my ability, to the energy of its movement.
