What reading level is Banquet Tendered to book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
On July 8th, 1846, the flag of our country was hoisted to the breeze in our city. From that time until the present the -28- city has ever been under the protection of the stars and stripes. It had been whispered during the spring that rich gold diggings had been discovered in the upper country. Carpenters dropped their hammers, blacksmiths closed their shops, storekeepers left their counters, teach- ers their schools, preachers their pulpits, printers their type-cases, and editors their sanctum...s, and the whole town was depopulated. Some returned from the rough mining camp without success, others came back laden with the precious metal, and so the population increased. On May i, 1850, the first Legislature voted San Francisco a charter. Col. J. W. Geary was your first Mayor, and of thel ong list of distinguished and illustrious persons who filled that position, some are now numbered with the living and others with the dead.
I am reminded, sir, to-night, that each star that appears on that banner that I see before me but illustrates that they are a band of sisters, representing each State of our Union, and united and blended together they teach us that we live in one common country, loved by all and despised by none.
