What reading level is Block Island: book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
lames Sands, Seniovr, AOED 73 years. Departed this life March y' 13, 1695." This man was an original settler of the island, and was born two years after the Mayflower came to Plymouth rock, or two hundred and fifty-five years ago. The form of the letters in this epitaph is very quaint, and the engraver has gotten his " G" in " aged" hindside before. A peculiar shaping and com- bination of letters, which modern typographic art cannot easily reproduce, is to be found, too, in the following : "Hea...re Lieth the body of Margaret GVTRY, aged 64 years, who departed this life April 3, 1687." This is the oldest stone I have been able to find in the Block Island cemetery, and takes one back within a decade of two centuries. I have heard, however, of one bearing date of 1684, but never saw it. But one will find much to entertain him in his researches on this spot, even though he does not see all of the stones I have here mentioned.
