To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Then come the reading of the sacred Scriptures and the family prayers. Immediately afterwards follows the breakfast, which in winter is by candle- light, and in summer by dawn-light. The breakfast, com- menced by ' asking a blessing ' and closed by ' returning thanks/ consists of pea-porridge, dealt out, before sitting down, in small wooden bowls. A small central dish has in it some salted shad and smoked alewives ; or peradventure some fresh eels which the boys caught from the river the evenin...g before. With these, brown bread and beer are served ; and here ended the usual variety. Sometimes the children were regaled with samp and milk, and the father with boiled salt pork. From the breakfast-table the father and sons l'epair to the field, and are at work by six o'clock. With their tools, they have taken the family-gun, not so much from fear of In- dians, as the hope of securing some valuable game. Some- times a fine deer crosses their field, on his way to the river ; and, if they are so fortunate as to take him, it makes a feast- week at home ; for every part is eaten.
