To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
18 But the regulation in Engrland was, and is, to turn out to the left. In this State there was no old or established law or custom in that regard. The roads were generally narrow and bad, and the be- havior of drivers depended mainly on their characters. When the i-oads along the ]N[ohawk and to the west became much used the trouble of meetmg and passing became serious. There arose debates and fights between teamsters. The highway became both a necessity and a terror. Thereupon the legislature... in 1801, recog- nizing that the loads going towards tide water usually were far the heaviest, passed a statute requiring that on the roads Icadino- from Schenectady up the Mohawk and on to Canandaigua, all teams going west should give the road to teams going east. This worked some gooJ, but after a little practice, any teamster who was tugging west with a full lading of imjDorted goods, found it not easy to see the ])ropriety of yielding the whole road when he met a wagon bearing only man, wife and baby, or an empty ox cart.
