To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Calhoun was greatly inflamed by it, and came to the seats of my senatorial colleague, Mr. Davis, and myself, and urged us both to say something in response to Mr. Hale. Thus prompted, we did both assail Mr. Hale and his speech in language not a little excited in its character. I must confess that I entirely forgot myself on this occasion, and delivered a fierce, in sulting, and vindictive harangue, wholly unworthy of the place, the mem ory of which has been ever most painful and mortifying. I e...ven used terms of indecent menace, and talked about hanging the gifted New Hampshire senator. When the excitement of the moment passed away, I was full of contrition on account of my grossly unsenatorial conduct, and offered more than once in my place a formal apology for rudeness which nothing could excuse. The good-natured and forgiving Mr. Hale acted a most generous and manly part, and gave me the most distinct as surance that he should harbor no unfriendly feelings toward me on ac count of my faux pas.
