To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Let this be done and it would have a tremendous influence upon the South, and would do much towards removing the evil. Then the slave-holding states must follow the example of Congress. The slaves ought to be put under protection of law ; there should be a law made forbidding the buying and selling slaves as an article of trade. Law should also be made to protect them from violence and outrage. And laws should also be made to secure them the advantages of acquiring knowledge. And in my opinion ...it would be no more than justice that those who have thus abused their slaves and reduced them to this degradation and moral pollution, should still retain their con- nexion with their slaves, till they have made some reparation of the injury done. They should cease buying, and selling them, and no longer hold them as property It should cease their cruelties, aad then slaves themselves should be allowed to seek redress of griev- ances at law. And further, the master should provide them means and opportunity for learning to read, and to acquire so much knowl- edge as will enable them to take care of themselves.
