What reading level is Early Days of Peoria And Chicago An Address Read Before the Chicago Historical book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
"It was a log building, some fifteen feet square, standing on the low bank of Lake Peoria, on one side of which was a raised platform for the judge, and its seats for lawyers and jurors were formed out of logs split in halves, and the split side turned up and raised from the floor by wooden pegs. It was there, in that humble room, and from that rude pulpit, that the early members of your church gladly assembled to listen to the Word, though dispensed to them from un- cultured lips. Much that wa...s then of deep interest to me has faded from memory. But one of our preachers I dis- tinctly recollect. He was an Englishman and a Methodist. If he did not agree with Paul in the doctrine of 'predestina- tion, ' in practice he did harmonize with that apostle in not being a burden to the church. Six days in the week he labored with his own hands, not at tent making, but at shoe making, and when the holy Sabbath came, his work bench was placed at one side of the judge's seat, and ham- mer and lapstone, with other implements of his trade, were neatly covered over with his leathern apron, while he, having donned a clerical black coat and a white necktie, stood before us ready to feed his little flock, which did not often number more than eight or ten, unless we reckon the flock of sheep and lambs that took shelter from the heat in the basement or cellar kitchen under the Court House floor, or the prairie mice, which, to the great delight of the chil- dren, held high carnival between the logs.
