What reading level is Argument for Appellant Concerning the Ownership of Lands By Pueblos book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
114. Let us understand what is meant by the term pueblo, as the Subject in dispute more nearly concerns that particu- lar class of towns, than the others mentioned. What then is a pueblo ? Simply a settlement, a collection of people, a town. The term pueblo, in the Spanish and Mexican law and language, means nothing more than is meant in English by the words, town, village, hamlet, and no more implies, ex vi termini, the ownership of lands or other property in Spanish law, than the latter terms... imply the ownership of lands in English law. The meaning is very correctly given by Mr. Com'r Thomp- son in his opinion in the case of the city claim. He says, "The Spanish word 'pueblo' means, in its original signifi- cation, the people or population generally ; it also means the inhabitants of a particular place, but in its more restricted signification, it means a town or village, or any collection of persons residing in the same place, and corresponds to our gen- eral term town, as applied to similar collections of houses and people, whether of greater or less extent.
