To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Ulysses Grant did not wish to go so far, but he had to obey if he wished to remain with the army.
GENERAL GRANT. 33 His family now consisted of a wife and baby boy, but he could not take them so far away ; so he bade them a long good-by.
There was no Pacific Railroad at that time, and they had to go by water. They first went to New York and took a ship for the Isthmus of Panama.
Grant had the greatest difficulty in crossing the Isthmus. He was still quartermaster and had to manage everything. T...hey crossed for the most part on pack-mules, and it took several weeks waiting to secure enough to carry his regiment.
There were a good many women and child- ren in the company, some of the soldiers hav- ing taken their families. While waiting, the cholera broke out among them, and their con- dition was dreadful.
Grant was most active and faithful in caring for the sick. But with all his care, one-third of them died before they could get away from that unhealthy climate.
Once across the Isthmus, they took another ship on the broad Pacific for San Francisco.
