To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Portsmouth Square has a flag. It is kept in a latrine at the rear of the Square. If you search diligently you may find at one corner of the Square, a cheap little sign-board on a pole, on which is told the distance to San Rafael Mission and to which is added, by way of postscript, something about Captain Montgomery and the hoisting of the flag. A latrine for the American flag, a postscript on a cheap tin sign for Captain Montgomery, and a beautiful monument of granite and bronze in the center... of the square for a Scotch novelist who never saw Portsmouth Square until thirty-five years after Captain Mont- gomery, by his historic act, had given the Square its name and its historic interest. There will be no cheap little sign-boards about the million dollar monument to French tradition, which is being built beside the Golden Gate. The ground for this magnificent French monument, was broken with a golden shovel, if you please. The ceremonies of the occasion, were on a scale, suggestive of the inauguration of a President of the United States.
