To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
By couples they were led bound into two houses that had been selected for the purpose, and were aptly termed the "Slaughter Houses," the men to the one, the women and children to the other, and 10 as they entered were knocked down and butchered. A Pennsylvanian of the party conducted the slaughter of the brethren. Taking up a cooper's mallet, (the house had been occupied by a cooper,) he said, looking at it, and handling it, "How exactly this will answer for the business." With this as the inst...rument of death, he continued knocking down one after the other, until he had killed fourteen with his own hands. He then handed the mallet to one of his fellow murderers, saying : "My arm fails me ; go on in the same way ; I think I have done pretty well."* Of the horrors that transpired in the house of the poor women and children we have no further account, than that a woman, called Christina, who had resided in Bethlehem, Pa., and could speak English well, fell upon her knees before the Captain, and begged him to spare their lives, but was told, it was impossible.
