To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This language may appear harsh, but it is practically thus ; though I fear it would be diffi- cult to convince those, whose sight has ever been at one focus, to vary it in any degree. All do not think alike on this point, but the general sentiment is the same. One of the oldest and most intelligent ladies of the mission said to me, that she had rather reside among the cannibals and licentious savages of the Marquesas, than in a community of Roman Catholics ; she actually thought herself safer a...mong the former than the latter. Another was afraid to send her children to the United States, for fear they would become Papists. When such sentiments find room in refined and cultivated minds, can we won- der that there is something repulsive and terrible to a genuine and ignorant Roman Catholic in the name of ^ heretic' Recrimination neither enlightens nor converts the world; and however it may disagree with my private feelings to perceive errors among those with whom there is so much excellence, yet I should fail in truth were I not to state it, as my con- viction, that there is too much of intemperate zeal in the contest now going on between the American and French missionaries.
