To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I was now convinced that we were on no Lake, but an Inlet of the Sea, known in the west of Scotland as a " Loch". Started at three o'clock A. M. to catch the favorable morning breeze. We set sail (a blanket officiating for that purpose,) along the inlet, and with an occasionall halt, sometimes against the wind, we sailed and paddled all day. The inlet, &c, is shut in by mountains, and in the quiet bays are three Indian villages, with the remains of stockades in front, and several salmon weirs o...n the streams flowing through them. They are without exception, specimens of very tastefuly situated dwellings. We noticed large oliffs of bluish primative limestone, in the inlet, and subsequently heard from the Indians, of "Coal and Metals. Tracings of Copper were everywhere apparent. Towards evening the Inlet after running for upwards of eighteen miles, began to narrow. An Indian was seen cutting fire- wood ; he made all haste for his village, which we now noticed smo- king on a cliff, and the roaring of the sea being heard without, we followed him, and drew our canoes up in a quiet bay, a little distance *rom the village.
