To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I do not allude to those who within the bounds of reason and propriety opposed the measures of the late president's administration, from an honest conviction that they were not the best for securing the integrity of the Union and the restoration of peace. Whether they were wise in their opposition or not, many of them look upon this deed with the most profound disgust and unfeigned sorrow. But there are others who have no right to shelter their misera- ble utterances behind an allowable party o...pposition — who from ignorance or malice, by pen or tongue, heaped the foul- est abuse on the head that now lies low in the dust, called him usurper, despot, tyrant, blood-thirsty wretch, even branded him as one destitute of the common attributes of civil- ized humanity ; and who coupled with their abuse predic- tions of his murder, and proclaimed such a fate as his desert. Such teachings, working on weakly-balanced and ill-trained minds, produced a wide-spread demoralization as to the prop- er repect due to lawful authority, fostered if it did not gene- rate a partiality for the cause of rebellion, familiarized men with the idea of ridding the country by one bold stroke, of the man they were taught to consider its worst enemy, nour- ished the idea of murder, and by a logic irresistible to fanati- cal minds, convinced them that such murder was the highest service to their country and to God.
