What reading level is A Few Suggestions Upon the Personal Liberty Law And Secession So Called in book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Their real and humane purpose was to give to the rights of the feeble and humble the protection which the law of the United States failed to give. They can legally effect neither the apparent design nor their real purpose. And the difficulty, in my judgment, is intrinsic, and results from the fact, that a law of the United States, held to be valid by the judiciary of the United States, is the supreme law of the courts of Massachusetts ; and no State law can either get over it or around it. / Th...e only place to seek the modification of the Uugitive-slave Law is on the floor of Congress ; and we need not despair of such a result. The just and reasonable modifications to be effected are, that the alleged fugitive shall, from the time of his arrest, be in the custody of the courts of the United States, both in the State where he is seized and that to which he is returned ; that, before he shall be delivered into the custody of the claimant, he shall have the right to trial by jury, freely and without purchase, under rules of evidence to be prescribed by Congress ; the most essential of which would be the presumption of freedom, and the right to meet the witnesses against him face to face.
