To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Sir, in speaking of that distinguished officer, Sir Charles Napier, whose very name is interwoven with recollections of England's glory, I should 25 wish to disclaim any intention of disrespect. I am not one to speak lightly of constituted authorities. I appeal to all those under whom I have served during my residence in India. I appeal to the testimonials I have received. Sir, I entertain the highest admiration of Sir Charles Napier's mili- tary talents ; I appreciate his great services to his... country ; I believe him to be quite incapable of committing a wilful injustice. But, Sir, as an independent man, giving an inde- pendent opinion to the best of my humble judgment, I am bound to say, that I consider his ignorance of the languages, manners, and habits of the people with whom he had to deal, his want of experience in native character and political life in India, and above all, his total want of sympathy with the un- fortunate Ameers, were the main cause of the fatal result of these negotiations.
