To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Stopping of business would doubtless be annoy- ing and might very likely produce some distress. But it would be legal and it would be effective: the government would get no revenue; British merchants no profit; and Americans could not be charged with violating a law the failure of which THE RIGHTS OF A NATION 89 was primarily due to the fact that papers indis- pensable to its application were, for one reason or another, not forthcoming. Mr. Livingston, happily possessed of the con- servative te...mperament, was disposed to achieve desired ends with the least possible disturbance of his own affairs and those of his country; and most men of independent means, landowners and merchants of considerable estates, moneyed men and high salaried officials whose incomes were not greatly affected by any temporary business de- pression, were likely to be of Mr. Livingston's opinion, particularly in this matter of the Stamp Act. Sitting comfortably at dinner every day and well knowing where they could lay hands on money to pay current bills, they enjoyed a high sense of being defenders of liberty and at the same time eminently law-abiding citizens.
