What reading level is Chronicles of Tarrytown And Sleepy Hollow book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A well-known character of those days was old Wolfert Kcker, who was the builder and proprietor of the " Wolfert 's Roost, " which Washington Irving has made famihar to all the world, as Sunnyside. Wolfert Ecker was a man to be trusted both by his neighbors and his landlord, and his name appears third on the Hst of elders of the church. He was elected to that office in 1698, a year before the building was completed, if we are to take the word of several clerical authorities.
With this mention of... Ecker and the date of his election the unhappy historian brings the hornets about his head, for the antiquary who believes that 1699 was the true date of erection, as placarded on the front of the church, is im- mediately up in arms against his brother- antiquary who holds that the Wolfert Kcker ant) Sleeps IboUow 45 election in 1698 casts a doubt upon it. I may as well, having made this plunge, do a little splashing in these vexed waters. First, the date on the tablet in the front or west wall of the church states that the building was erected in 1699 by Frederick Philips and Katrina Van Courtlandt.
