What reading level is In Journeyings Oft; a Sketch of the Life And Travels of Mary C. Nind book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Jinrikishas could carry Aunt Mary and her company only to the gates. Dismounting, they entered streets so narrow that, while examining the wares exposed for sale on one side, they might easily have fingered those on the other. They had to walk astride a stream of filth which coursed through the center of the street, and avoid as they could the piles of decaying garbage which stood everywhere. In an open space was a stagnant pond, covered by so thick and green a scum that some one facetiously ca...lled it a tea-garden. They were continually surrounded by crowds of filthy beggars, breathing out intolerable odors. It was not safe to give them money, for they would immediately clamor for more, and indulge in such pushing and pulling that it was difi&cult to escape without being torn to pieces.
At some seasons, other risks are involved in a visit to this native city; for it is in such places that cholera counts its victims by thousands, literally decimating the entire population.
At last came the day when word went through the Home, *' The steamer from Foochow is in." 9 130 IN JOURNEYINGS OFT.
