What reading level is Reply of Gen Thomas J Green to the Speech of General Sam Houston in the Sena book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Calhoun for more than thirty years ? this fact is known to hundreds ; yet, nullification is only half that age. A sycophant, as was Houston, to the great Jackson, might shield himself for the time under such a battery, so that he could vent more effectually his spleen against the great nulli- fier. So did he, for years, vilify and^ calumniate the lamented Henry Clay, because he supposed it pleasing to Gen. Jackson. For years it was a common slander of Houston to say that Mr. Clay's hostility to... Jackson was on account of Gen. Jackson having run Mr. Clay out of a tavern in Kentucky. Yet, I have been told that when he, Houston, was sent on to Ashland as one of the Senate's Committee with the remains of that lamented patriot, that he, Houston, in the presence of the people of Kentucky, stooped and kissed the coffin of the illustrious dead, with a sanctimonious phiz which would have shamed any puritan face in the days of the roundheads. Was such unblushing hypocrisy ever before witnessed ?
