To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was well said, at the time the Society was founded, that this traffic would receive its surest and dead- liest, if not its only effectual blow, in Africa itself. This prediction has, in no mean degree, been already verified in our colony. As might be expect- ed, it is treated there with the most indignant abhorrence; and more than one instance has already occurred, in which the colonists have spontaneously risen in their strength, and crushed, with a signal vengeance, those who dared to poll...ute their soil, or its vicinity, with its accursed iruits.
In the early stages of the colony, the United States having passed laws to give effect to those prohibiting the slave trade, which was declared iracy, authorized the transportion to Liberia of such Africans as should e re-captured by our vessels; and, for the purpose of carrying this power into effect, have, at that time and since, so far aided the colony, as to con- tribute to the support of the Colonial Agent, to the supply of arms, and erec- tion of fortifications, to the compensation, for a season, of a physician, and to some other agents, connected with a provision for the temporary maintenance and protection of the re-captured Africans.
