To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
His whole time, during the prevalence of the disorder, waL- spent in the performance of the works of mercy, visiting and relieving the sick, comforting the afflicted, and feeding the hungry. Of his congregation some hundreds have paid the last debt to nature since the malignant fever began; and I be- lieve he attended nearly the whole of them. To so many dangers was he exposed that he stands a living miracle of preservation." As an instance of how inhumanly the Germans werQ treated by the Engli...sh during this period, and of how little value their precious lives were held to be, I will illustrate with two examples : During the epidemic most vessels came no nearer to the city than Fori I^Iifflin. Such as came from the West Indies were forced to stop there. Vessels with German emigrants, however, were brought boldly up to the city, and the passengers publicly advertised and sold as servants in the fever-stricken city — numbers of ihem to become iimiates of the Bush Hill Hospital before many hours had passed and thence carried out to a pauper's grave.
