To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The New England Primer was used for study, and we learned, among other things, "In Adam's fall we sinned all," and also "What is the chief end of man?" The intermission gave an opportunity for those not attending the Sunday school to get the current news, and the horse-shed class was a regular institution for some of the men. When the weather was favorable, there was usually a meeting Sunday evenings at the schoolhouses in turn " at early candle- lighting," when each head of a family was expect...ed to bring a candle or oil lamp. There was generally a full house at these meetings. In those days the greatest economy prevailed. It was not the custom for the towns or individuals to run into debt. Very few houses were clapboarded or painted, and there were not a dozen covered carriages or two-seated wagons in town. The old-style wagons with thoroughbraces were going out, and wagons with steel springs were coming in. Cooking- stoves were used in the winter, but the big fireplaces, with the old-fashioned cranes and pot-hooks and trammels, were pre- ferred in the summer.
