To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


But the expense of a professional staff was great and the number of students was not large enough to support it without an endowment. The Chau- tauqua University might have won a place in the world of education, if friends had been fotmd to bestow upon it a liberal endowment, but among the varied gifts of Dr. Vincent was not that pecu- liar talent for raising money. The University did not prosper, and in 1898 the Trustees volun- tarily surrendered to the Regents of the University of the State o
...f New York the examina- tion of candidates and the conferring of degrees.
Again the title was dianged and the University became "The Chautauqua System of Education." The year 1886 ushered in some improvements.
In place of the old wharf stood a new pier building, three stories high, with stores on the upper bal- cony, for the steamboat still brought most of the Chautauqua crowds and at their arrival a throng , was always present to greet them. Above the building rose a tower, from which sounded forth over the lake and through the Grove the melody THE CHAPLAIN'S LEG 229 of the Chautauqua chimes.
