To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
After the tri- umphant suppression of a revolt it is not wise or statesmanlike to go back for a minute in- quisition into past offenses and canvass calmly and leisurely the by-gone effervescences of fierce excitement. "Let the dead past bury its dead. " There are doubtless at the South inveterate, malignant, bitter, revengeful rebels. There are men there who, if tried for treason, lawfully convicted, and sentenced to be hung, could not succeed in getting my signature to an application for execu...tive clemency. Such men are a curse to any country. Such men brought on the rebellion, and such men are to-day doing the South more harm by their loud-mouthed ranting and offensive demonstra- tions than all the radicals in the country. I believe such cases to be more numerous in Maryland and the other border States than in the confederacy itself. I believe such cases to be less numerous among the survivors of the late rebel army than in the great army of "sym- pathizers, " marching like Noah's animals into the ark, male and female.
