To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In December, 1863, it held a Sanitary 70 553 Hosted by Google 554 ^OMAN^S WOEK IN THE CIVIL WAR. Fair in Boston, the net proceeds of which were nearly one hun- dred and forty-six thousand dollars. The first Chairman of the Executive Committee, was Mrs. D. Buck, and on her resignation early in 1864, Miss Abby W. May, an active and efficient member of the Executive Committee from the first was chosen Chairman. The rare executive ability dis- played by Miss May in this position, and her extraordin...ary gifts and influence render a brief sketch of her desirable, though her own modest and retiring disposition would lead her to depreciate her own merits, and to declare that she had done no more than the other members of the Association. In that coterie of gifted women, it is not impossible that there may have been others who could have done as well, but none could have done better than Miss May; just as in our great armies, it is not impossible that there may have been Major-Generals, and perhaps even Brigadier-Gen- erals, who, had they been placed in command of the armies, might have accomplished as much as those who did lead them to victory.
