To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

With all his eccentricities, he was a devout man, conscientious andbrave. He lived in domestic peace and honor all his days, and dying, he and his wife, whom he had married almost in childhood, left aposterity of 129 direct descendants to mourn them. [Transcriber'sNote: Lengthy footnote (1) relocated to chapter end. ] With all his devotion to the cause of his church, Peter Cartwright wasan ardent Jackson politician, with probably a larger acquaintancethroughout the district than any other man i...n it, and with a personalfollowing which, beginning with his own children and grandchildren andextending through every precinct, made it no holiday task to defeathim in a popular contest. But Lincoln and his friends wentenergetically into the canvass, and before it closed he was able toforesee a certain victory.
An incident is related to show how accurately Lincoln could calculatepolitical results in advance--a faculty which remained with him allhis life. A friend, who was a Democrat, had come to him early in thecanvass and had told him he wanted to see him elected, but did notlike to vote against his party; still he would vote for him, if thecontest was to be so close that every vote was needed.
