What reading level is Historical Sketch of John Phillips book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
On the whole, it were better if more men would halt at the threshhold of the ministry, and not from modest scruples alone, but a truer estimate of themselves, a study of their own aptitudes, and for a more unmistakable hearing of the Divine call before crossing over. Fewer first-class mechanics, merchants, teachers, jour- nalists would be spoiled in the attempt to make dull, indifferent preachers out of good men. But John Phillips was not lost to the cause, even if he failed of its highest call...ing. There were other things he could do and yet glorify God. He could teach and make his teaching a holy ministry.
Six years after leaving college, he came to Exeter a school- master. It was in 1/41, probably between the months of May and August. Though still but twenty-two, he was a ripe student for his years. Here he opened a private classical school. His success may be judged by the fact that after two JOHN PHILLIPS. 9 years he was engaged as instuctor in one of the town schools. He seems to have made his classical learning tell in that posi- tion, for by vote of the town some time after (1747) certain districts were assessed for the support of a Latin School.
