To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To carry on their ship-building without interrup tion from storms and inundations, the Spaniards erected four large frame buildings. Within these both officers and men toiled without distinction? sawing planks, twisting cordage, making oars, and hammering out iron, and their only pride was shown in striving who should do the most work. The cordage furnished by Anilco was fabricated into rigging and cables, and when this was not suffi cient, the rinds of mulberry trees were substituted. The Indi...an mantles, when sound and entire, were formed into sails; the old ones were picked into shreds to caulk the vessels. For this latter purpose, also, use was made of an herb resembling hemp, called Enequen; and in place of tar the seams were payed with the rosin and gum of various trees, and with an unctuous kind of earth. During the whole winter the captain general of Anilco was continually with the Spaniards, officia ting as the representative of his Cacique, ming ling in all their concerns, administering to their wants, and seemingly taking as much interest in CONQUEST OF FLORIDA.
